# Y4 - American City Landmarks

  ![Image of Y4 - American City Landmarks](https://files.schudio.com/boarshawprimary/images/blog/IMG_1694.JPG)  21 October 2016   [Year 4 - Star Fish](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-4-star-fish)

#### Well... Year 4 starfish have been working very hard with the building of their models to be able to put a circuit into.  We were split into groups with different groups looking at different landmarks:

- San Francisco - Golden Gate Bridge
- Florida 1 - Roller coaster for Universal World
- New York - Taxi
- Florida 2 - Rocket for Kenndy Space Centre

Once we had completed them, we then inserted a circuit we had built that would either light up or make a sound.

In addition, we created leaflets for each of our cities, persuading others to visit.  In these we included famous landmarks and tourist attractions, and our leaflets can be seen on pobble!
