Session 2 - To practise making joints. Session 3 - Create a prototype. Session 4 - Start making a bug shelter- frame of the shelter. Session 5 - Carry on making a bug shelter Session 6 - Put on final touches to the bug shelter Session 7 - Evaluate your shelter. There are videos and links to support the learning. The end goal is to create a bug shelter using wood and strengthening it with triangles. Then pack it out with natural materials from the environment and recyclable materials.
