SAUCE - A way to help choose ideas

This is a very simple resource to help children remember some key points when they need choose their best design ideas in Design and Technology. The document can be printed out and mounted on foam board; with a couple of small magnets glued onto the back, it can be a resource permanently on your whiteboard and taken down when you want to focus on it. Alternatively you could project the image when needed as a reminder of the message it gives or just print it and put it on your display board. NB - the actual download is a new and improved version of the preview. I have found after a couple of projects using it, the children like to refer back to it as if it they have always used it. You can always focus on different aspects depending on what you are doing. I always highlight the first and last words "Simple" and "Easy to make" . One of the common mistakes the children (and sometimes us, the teacher's) make is choosing and idea that is too complicated so these two points are really helpful. Please don't forget to leave a review if it works for you or needs improving. I hope it is useful for the children you teach.
