A couple of worksheets based on Lego Mini Vehicles (simple Lego models). Children are tasked with drawing up the photographed model in isometric. At the top of the page I have modeled this task in simple steps. To draw, use thick/thin lines, and then render the models should take around an hour per sheet. File enclosed is a printable PDF and accompanying jpeg. I have other sheets available in this series, or a compilation package too.

A 17 slide powerpoint, which covers all key information on 3D printing (and also as a tag on, EPOS/PPC) Lesson starts with spaced retrieval (mechanisms this time), and consolidates with definitions.

A 30 slide PowerPoint covering all necessary designers for AQA A-level Design & Technology. Lesson begins with spaced retrieval questions, and a connect activity. It concludes with two exam questions with mark scheme. Each designer has a potted history, examples of their iconic products and key notes as to their styles.

A 19 slide powerpoint, which covers all key information on Design for Maintenance, Repair and Disposal. 6 R’s, Upcycling, strategies for disassembly, design for durability etc. Lesson starts with spaced retrieval (maths this time), and consolidates with 2 exam questions (with mark scheme). Includes video, and practical session disassembling a mouse/keyboard (normally I find a broken one from ICT).

18 slide Powerpoint, including opening maths question (retrieval) and a connection question. Powerpoint then goes through the various tests (Tensile, Toughness, Hardness and then non destructive options - Ultrasound and Radiographic / X-rays). Each process covers key words, definitions, diagrams and videos of the tests in process. The lesson concludes with 2 exam questions (with mark scheme). This lesson is designed as a complimentary lesson to the one with identical name but “(in school)” at the end.

A 17 slide powerpoint covering material testing in readiness for NEA. This focusses on testing techniques you can easily do in school (tensile, hardness, toughness, energy (heat) transfer etc. Within the powerpoint are photographs and videos of each test taking place in the workshop (they are made by me - not just a youtube video). The theory works as a standalone presentation, but if you wanted to make your own testing rigs, I have made a few simple contraptions to make testing more controlled which are also shown in the powerpoint photos/videos in use - all 3 would be easy to make in any DT workshop in a few hours. There is an accompanying handout for recording any practical tests that students do. Always one of the favourite lessons of year 10, and they get to complete a piece of NEA in the process too! As with all my lessons, they come with a key question to begin and relevant exam questions (with mark scheme) to conclude.

An editable (using powerpoint) or printable template for whole school SWOT analysis. Sheet includes prompts.

As with all my lessons, they come with a retrieval exercise to begin and relevant exam questions (with mark scheme) to conclude.

A 17 slide PowerPoint addressing the product life cycle: introduction - growth - maturity - decline. The presentation includes case studies, connect activity and consolidation exam questions with a student facing mark structure.

16 Slide PowerPoint covering the necessary theory for AQA A-Level Design & Technology. Lesson includes group tasks, mini white board Q’s along with a starter task / exam question consolidation/plenary.

31 Slide powerpoint covering the necessary elements of theory for AQA GCSE Design & Technology. This would cover 2 lessons. Lesson has a starter question, and further questions too. 2 worksheets outs are enclosed too.

8 Slide powerpoint covering the necessary elements of theory for AQA GCSE Design & Technology. Lesson has a starter question. The lesson also includes a practical activity investigating some fittings (you can make up some demos if desired - photos enclosed, and a CAD file for 3D printing some feet for an M8 bolt)

21 Slide powerpoint covering the necessary elements of theory for AQA GCSE Design & Technology. Lesson has a starter question, consolidate question and activity throughout (VOCAPPS).

11 Slide powerpoint covering the necessary elements of theory for AQA GCSE Design & Technology. Lesson has a starter question, and further questions as a consolidate.

11 Slide powerpoint covering the necessary elements of theory for AQA GCSE Design & Technology. Lesson has a starter question. Main focus of lesson is a production line activity manufacturing a small laser cut slot together rocket as a class, then packaging in a carton. All CAD files (2D design) are enclosed to make up the parts.

18 Slide powerpoint covering the necessary elements of theory for AQA GCSE Design & Technology. Lesson has a starter question.

Powerpoint designed to cover the required theory for Major Developments in Technology within A-level D&T. Sir Clive Sinclair Case Study Age of Microelectronics Gordon Moore and Moore’s Law Information Age Impact of ICs Product History Task 2 exam questions are also included. 23 slides - lesson includes spaced retrieval starter, questions for show-me-tell-me boards and consolidation activities.

I readiness for this year’s exam season, this is a 3 page countdown calendar made in powerpoint which asks a key question each day in the run up to the exam. Dates are from Easter to the end of June. I usually encourage my children to pin the 3 sheets up in their kitchen, and answer the question whilst making breakfast! The students like it, and it often brings about greater revision as the questions lay bare the gaps in knowledge. Although in powerpoint, the page is set up to be A4, so will print perfectly on a sheet (tip: I usually save as pdf before printing and then print that, as you can get it closer the edges as a pdf!) NB: The template has questions for GCSE D&T within, and the exam date is also for AQA GCSE D&T, but just needs editing to suit your own subject, Key Stage and classes. English / Maths / Science / Geography / History / RE / French / German / Drama / Music / Food / CS / Business Studies / ICT Also enclosed is a few hints for good revision (including a slide you can use when launching this) Hope it helps!
