Full MYP Units Bundle which can cover the entire MYP 1 - 5 Design curriculum, representing a significant saving over buying units individually.
In these outstanding, creative units, students are tasked with designing and making solutions in line with specific client-led briefs. With practical, written, and theory work closely related to the new MYP Design Specification and four assessment criteria.
These units/projects have been designed for a term (12-14 weeks) or half-term (6-8 weeks) though each can be extended or condensed by modifying the design process and portfolio accordingly. Included is a unit planner that maps each project to units of inquiry (IB), sustainable development goals (UN), ATL skills (IB), and inner development goals (IDGs).
Each project covers the entire iterative (non-linear) design process as well as relatable theory. The units are flexible and can be adapted to be taught throughout MY1 to MY5. The recommended MY year group can be found below.
Units include:
Product Design Unit - Desk Tidy Product (MY1).
Graphic Design Unit - Personified Typography (various briefs) (MY1).
Product Design Unit - Cardboard Up-cycling Project (industry brief) (MY2).
Product Design Unit - Phone Stand Product (MY2 or 3).
Architecture Unit - Introduction to Architecture. Worlds’ Leading Architects and Their Creative Processes (MY2 or 3).
Product and App Design Unit - Smart Water Bottle and App (MY3).
Architecture Unit - Designing Accessible, Innovative, and Sustainable Schools. (MY3 or 4).
Product Design Unit - LEDC Solar Light. (MY4).
Product and App Design Unit - Smart Toothbrush. (MY4).

One of a series of Graphics Personification lessons, where students are introduced to graphic design, typography and advertising.
In this first lesson, students are introduced to graphic design, personification and anthropomorphism through various questioning activities and a Pixar video. Finally they are shown how both are used effectively in advertising (M & M’s and Kellogg’s) before creating their own Pixar research page, demonstrating an understanding of the key words learnt; in a visual way. Also included is an instructional video to aid with delivery of content.
If you enjoyed this lesson, please see the other lessons in my personification graphics scheme. This scheme was designed for KS3 but could also be used with KS4 students.
