YEAR 9 GRAPHIC DESIGN PROJECT 2020

The rationale:
As D&T teachers return to school, we need a sit down/non-tool based project to start the students off, due to the Coronavirus.

This 6 x 1 hour lesson mini project is an ‘all in one’ prepared resource, containing lesson by lesson powerpoints and differentiated booklets that can be used by subject specialists and non-D&T teachers alike, perfect for cover work as well. The project ends with a sit down design and make lesson.

Powerpoints:
The project is driven by high end, attractive and informative power points, which have detailed instructions and notes, step-by-step animations, with starter, main and plenary activities, as well as home learning included.

Learning Outcomes:

This graphics project is aimed at Year 9 (13 year old) students, who will gain an understanding of how to:

• Lesson 1: Draw in 2 point perspective
• Lesson 2: Adding cast shadows in 2 point perspective
• Lesson 3: How to draw in Isometric P.2
• Lesson 4: 3rd angle orthographic translation from Isometric
• Lesson 5: How to design branding, typography and colour
• Lesson 6: Design and make a Point of Display using a NET

Project plan:
A scheme of work is also included as a MS Publisher file. This explains the: learning outcomes, starter, main and plenary activities as well as resources required and homework.
