RESOURCES |
|
Stage One: The pupils will draw a border and title block to the set
measurements. Use of T squares and set squares will be demonstrated.
Accuracy and the use of faint construction lines will be emphasised. The theme ‘puppets’ will be placed on the board. Pupils will write as many words as possible around the main theme, explaining their inclusion. Drawings and pictures will be added. The pupils will draw their own rich picture. |
L. Key words represented as part of the
rich picture N. Measurements for the border and title block C. Pupils will listen to others as they write their key words on the board. HWK. Complete the rich picture. |
Research children’s toys using the internet or catalogues. | ICT
access. Drawing and writing equipment. Sample rich pictures. |
|
Stage Two: The pupils will be introduced to the design brief . Sample Brief “You are to design and make a simple toy for a young child. The toy must be easy to make and the interesting to young children. It must include movement and colour as these tend to hold the attention of young children. It must be safe to use and cheap to manufacture.” The pupils will work out their own brief and present it in an interesting way. Examples shown |
ICT. Opportunity for pupils to word
process their design briefs. N. Pupils draw guidelines for their printing. 3,6,3mm measurements used. C. Pupils start designing for others. Safety incorporated into designs. L. Pupils read out their rough design briefs. These are discussed in groups and improved. HWK. Complete design brief presentation. |
Pupils to consider safety as related to children's’ toys. Look at an existing toy and label safety factors. | ICT
access. Drawing and writing equipment. Sample design briefs. |
|
Stage Three: The pupils will produce a number of puppet designs (four
ideas). They will be shown some possible designs based on cartoons, animals and characters and shown how each part could be linked together to achieve movement. Using an A3 sheet, the pupils will draw four ideas. The use of explanatory notes will be emphasised. |
N. Divide the design sheet according to
the number of pictures and text. ICT. Research on the internet on puppets and mechanisms. L. Use of labels and text to support designs. HWK. Collect examples of mechanisms and explain how they work. Presented on an information sheet. |
Two further puppet designs with emphasis on the explanation of any movement / mechanisms. | ICT
access. Drawing and writing equipment. Sample ideas and research |
