Gears and Pulleys - 6 or 7 week project.
THERE ARE NO LESSON PLANS INCLUDED BUT LESSONS ARE VERY SELF EXPLANATORY AND EXPLAINED INCREDIBLY CLEARLY BELOW.
This lesson pack includes the following lessons:

Lesson 1 - ‘Cold Design’
This lesson gives the children the opportunity to design something based on their favourite game and gain a basic undestand of gears, pulleys and levers. At the moment the big hype is ‘Among Us’ so a main focus is this across these lessons. However, it also gives options for those who have not played it/are uninterested in this

Lesson 2 - Pulleys
This lesson gives the children a secure understanding of what pulleys are and why they are important. It also includes instructions on how to make a simple pulley in the classroom. (Practical lesson)

Lesson 3 - Gears
This lesson gives the children a secure understanding of what gears are and why they are important. It also includes instructions on how to make gears in the classroom using simple and cheap resources. These will be saved to be used for their final products.

The remaining lessons are covered on one PowerPoint as they were carried out as a ‘DT Day’. However, it can also be split across 3 or 4 separate lessons.

Lesson 4 - Final Design
This lesson is where the children design their final product and explain what its use will be.

Lesson 5 and 6 - Creating the Product
This lesson gives a recap of what we have covered so far (mini-plenary). Then, it goes onto the children creating the final product from their design. This may go across two lessons, depending on ability and time constraints.

Lesson 7 - Evaluating the Product
This is where the children can give a final evaluation on their product; strength, weaknesses, targets.

A work booklet is also attached to go alongside the final three/four lesson
