DT Curriculum Champions

With prompts, the children could name the five strands of DT.

Textiles, Structures, Food and Nutrition, Electrical Systems and Mechanisms

My favourite thing last year was:

• We all loved making food.
• We enjoyed building a bridge and getting to work out different designs.
• We enjoyed making bread and being able to make something we could eat from scratch.
• I liked when we were making our final product - we were given time to work freely and at our own pace using different materials.
• We liked making sandwiches because we actually got to eat them.
• I enjoyed making vehicles because we were given freedom when designing because the user was ourselves.
• We enjoyed make fruit kebabs because we got to eat them.

My hopes for this year are:

• That we get to work with different children in the class.
• That we get to work with different types of designs.
• That we get to work with a range of materials, like wood.
• that we get to make burgers because it will be different to anything that we have made before.
• That we get to make different sewing projects.

Skills that we would like to develop this year are:

• Working together as a team.
• Being able to persevere when our plans don’t go the way that we want them to.
• To be more patient when getting resources that we need.
• Being tidier whilst we work.
• Being safe and making good choices when using equipment.
• To remain calm when things aren’t working (not get angry/stressed!)
