Three starter puzzles. Designed to be thought provoking and interesting. Can be presented in any way in order to deliver to a range of age groups.

Crossword puzzle including answer key - used in engineering lessons to teach age 14-16 students.

Aimed at Year 12 Level 2 City and Guilds Engineering Students. Presentation examines the Forms that Metals (and other materials) are supplied in and takes a brief look at how materials are heat treated. Good for cover teachers, Questions run along with presentation content.

Lots of information about metallic structures (at a microscopic level) I use this by cutting out the information that I need for a class and producing my handouts etc. from there. Feel free to cut, chop and paste anything you want from the resource.

A presentation and hand-out that describes the use of a range of keys, keyways, taper lock bushes and frictional turning devices. Used for students studying on BTEC and City & Guilds engineering courses, in 45 minute to 1 hour sessions, but could also be used for automotive, aerospace etc... Resources have been made to make it easy to customise. I removed all of my personal things from the slides and hand-out so changing the format of activities etc. is easy. Feel free to cut and paste anything you want from the resources.

A Powerpoint quiz on the subject of Casting and Forging. Used with engineering, DT and some science (Chemistry) subjects. Can be easily modified to change the questions. Fairly foundation level questions. Please feel free to change and modify anything you wish in order to meet your needs.

Lots of information about how plastics are formed, what they are used for and what they are made from. Designed for use with 6th form students - but if theres anything that I need from the presentation I generally cut it out and use for a specific lesson. Feel free to cut and paste anything you want from the presentation to meet your needs.

Activities that are designed to ease students into 3D modelling on Solidedge. Starts very basic but increases in difficulty throughout. Requires a teacher with a fair level of Solidedge experience. Feel free to cut, paste and chop anything you want in order to suit your own style.

A formative assessment worksheet featuring a range of isometric and orthographic projections that start simple and work up to complex. I produced this for a formative assessment during Solidedge teaching, in order to assess the progress of my whole cohort. I used a cloud based folder system for each student for me to assess the work. It could be easily be used for manual Technical drawing classes. Feel free to cut, paste and use any drawings, or sketches for other purposes.

Powerpoint and activities to fit an hours session, more or less depending on the level of students. Teacher will need to have knowledge of some of the materials used in the categories of COSHH. Described from an engineering perspective. Feel free to cut, paste and use the resources for any other purpose.

Engineering based health and safety intro for fairly low level students - Level 1/2 Explains the meanings behind COSHH, HASAWA and asks students to find risks in three photographs. Handy for a cover teacher to use to introduce health and safety theory. Feel free to change, cut and paste to suit yourself.

Starter activities used to teach low level (1 and 2) engineering students about the different signs in use. I found it best to have a workshop available with all appropriate signs being used, for the students to use as research. Feel free to cut, paste and chop anything to suit your own needs.

A revision resource showing the definitions of many terms in Health and Safety covered by BTEC and City and Guilds courses. I put them onto a PPT for ease of access but I wouldn't deliver the powerpoint to a class without significant changes. I also have these slides on our Moodle system for the students to use as a pure revision resource, and also as a source of information they can easily use when producing written work.

Abrasive wheels information. Delivered some time ago, but information is still relevant under law and useful from a teaching standpoint. May need to be adjusted to suit your individual style of teaching and the area of engineering that you teach. Feel free to cut, paste and change whatever you wish in order to suit yourself.

Information about casting, forging, extruding and pressing. Questions included to support the information supplied. Please feel free to cut and paste anything that you need.

Aimed at year 12 Level 2 City and Guilds Engineering students studying unit 202. Briefly covers Melting points of metals, Density, Colour, Magnetism, Corrosion resistance, Conductivity and Insulation 18 slide Presentation to be used along with questions sheet - ideal for cover teaching. Calculations can be added for stretch and challenge students, these are easily found in any textbooks or a quick web search. Takes between 1 - 2 hours dependant on depth of teaching.
