This is an introduction to isometric drawing. The first few slides are to get students thinking about design. Followed by a discussion on how we can pictorially represent objects. This is then followed by some isometric drawing grids for teacher demonstration and tasks. It is suggested that you print isometric drawing sheets to hand to students during the lessons in order to complete the tasks set> Please note I do not claim to have created all of the resources on the slides but have collated them.

A 6 lesson resource including lesson plans and accompanying PowerPoint's introducing students to set up and creation of Raspberry pi's, breadboards and LED use. Please note you will need breadboards and LED's along with appropriate wires and pi's to enable this to work! Some knowledge of raspberry pi and wiring will also be required. The accompanying workbook is designed for students to draw out wiring diagrams and program notes in order that they can recreate projects each lesson. Lesson plans include time to "get out" and pack away raspberry pi's assuming they are not always set up. This is a slightly older resource but is designed to be adapted to suit individual school needs and set ups. Levelling help sheets and feedback templates are also provided. Some teacher knowledge is expected but these should provide a good starting point for further experimentation.
