Drivers Education

Term 1:

In term one, we learned about some of the parts of the car with Mr. Walsh.

We watched videos with explanations on how each part works, and Mr. Walsh then explained it further and showed us the parts in the bonnet and on the wheels of his own car.

We learned about :

• The braking system

• The alternator

• The 4 stroke engine

After learning about the different parts, we had to type up one page explaining

• Its role in the car

• How it works

• Sketches/Diagrams

Here is the document I typed up to explain how the 4 stroke engine works:

Term 2:

In term 2, we continued learning about the different parts of the car, including:

• Clutch

• Cooling system

I found this interesting because I had never really thought about how these things work in the car before.

I'm able to recognise them in the car now which is great.
