Simple little plenary task to explain the process for creating sketches in a Design lesson.

This is a resource that includes a presentation around Alessi and different designers. Included are a powerpoint, 6 Alessi designers moodboards and a design sheet. The lesson asks students to design in the style of an Alessi designer using a mood board of that designers work to help them. There is also a ‘guess the price’ task at the end to show the impact of good design.

This is a power point and worksheet for teaching inputs and outputs for electronic circuits and circuit diagrams. There is a worksheet and information sheet for teaching students about different inputs and outputs and the power point reinforces that knowledge by asking students to draw different circuit diagrams using the information they have.

A booklet based around different measurements and units commonly found in DT but can be used in maths or other areas around the school. (originally a booklet used for students in isolation) Has measurement conversions, measuring and marking up parts, perimeter and area and fractions of measurements.

6 different worksheets that can be used for various cover in both art and design and other areas around the school. There are worksheets for designing a football shirt, a racing car livery, a meme creator, design a garden, design a computer game cover and a pop art phone case.

A worksheet with 4 different shoe outlines to turn into graffiti shoes using the images around them. Great resource for a cover lesson or a creative lesson.

This is a dimensioned drawing for a small ‘torch’ that can be made using a lathe, milling machine and drilling machine to give students basic machine skills and introduce them to basic functions of each machine and also how to machine metal.

This is a resource for the Pearson BTEC Tech Award in Engineering Component 1A. This is the research of different engineered products and the companies that come together to engineer them. This is a pack of resources around the write up of the report. There is a presentation to aid writing up the report and suggest certain companies that can be used around 4 different products, Drone, Motorcycle, Pedal Bike and Car. These have been vetted and researched to make sure all the information is available on the companies websites. There is a write up sheet for research and completed sheets around each company to help the completion of these. There is also an example report which uses different engineering sectors than the ones used by the students and has two made up companies so it cannot be copied but gives students an idea of higher expectations. There is also a help sheet which breaks down the report into manageable parts and explains what to include.

Dimensioned drawing for a stationery holder with instructions of how to make all the parts. This is a metal project using flat steel bars and box section as an introduction to some basic metal working.

In this pack are all the write up resources for Component 2B for the Pearson BTEC Tech Award in Engineering Level 1/2. This is based off the example work and uses the same cheap multi tool which is available cheaply from different websites. This includes a presentation with instructions on and the tasks broken down. A help sheet with the facts about the components used and help in writing the spec. There are worksheets for the observations in the photos. A reassembly guide for the multi tool. There is also a blank workbook to complete the work on paper.

This is a full resource for the Pearson BTEC Tech Award in Engineering Level 1/2 Component 2C. The making task based around the multi tool as used in the exemplar materials. In the pack is a powerpoint with multiple lessons to explain each of the tasks from production plan, manufacturing, write up and evaluation. There is a booklet to fill in with photos taken and write up about each task. A dimension sheet for the tool, help sheets for the production plans and an example. This has been used and moderated at all levels of Pearsons laid out expectations for Level 2 Pass, Merit and Distinction.

**This is a project for a modular phone/watch/coin stand. ** There is a presentation which goes through each of the making lessons and the two design lessons associated with the project. There is a set of dimensioned drawings, done to scale, for students to follow. There are 3 different parts which students can work through at their own pace as well as two design lessons. One to design around a designer as laid out in the GCSE spec and the other to come up with their own part of the stand for another purpose. Lots of differentiation in this project and easy to follow instructions. Only uses 15mm pine wood so is cheap to run too!

Mock Exam paper for the Pearson Engineering Tech Award Component 3 Part 2 Responding to an Engineering brief. This is a mock exam made by myself based around a cable holder and a question for the analysis of data part. This was really useful in helping my students prepare for the exam last year.

This is a mini project which looks at all the aspects of the design process over a two lessons. There are product sheets for 6 different toys and a worksheet for analysing these products, writing a specification, design ideas and an evaluation. The presentation goes through each stage of the process and aids the teacher and students to complete the lessons to a high outcome with expectations and tasks clearly laid out.

This is a lesson about materials and what they are used for. The lesson looks at different metals, woods and plastics. Students recognise different properties for materials using the help sheets provided and link these to the example products given.

This is a resource which introduces students to different rendering techniques to show form and different materials using a range of different techniques. Included is a powerpoint presentation which explains all the tasks and a worksheet to complete all of the tasks on.

This is a presentation and worksheets for a lesson around measuring the material properties of different cords and ropes. There are 6 different ropes used in the lesson and students move around and test each one and learn about them using information sheets. This lessons requires 6 ropes/cords (Para cord, twine, bungee cord, fishing wire, blue polypropylene rope and chain) and weights and stands.

Included in this resource is a power point, a group worksheet and an individual worksheet. This lesson teaches students about different properties by linking the property with its definition and linking that with a particular product. This is done as a group and then individually on different sheets with a power point to guide the students through the lesson.
