This engaging and purposeful series of lessons enables children to create working slider and lever mechanisms. The resources include 3 lessons and an evaluation sheet (leading children through the ‘research, design, make, evaluate’ process) and a corresponding knowledge organiser. I used a polar theme when teaching this unit, as it was our topic at the time, but the resources can easily be adapted to fit your own particular project. Each PowerPoint is eye-catching and comprehensive, and all worksheets templates are included as in both Word and PDF. These lessons were originally created for children in years 1-2, but may be adapted for slightly older and younger year groups.

These clear, detailed and visually-appealing resources offer a complete reference point for children, teachers and parents covering the ‘Structures’ elements of Design and Technology. The organisers are clear, logical and fully meet the expectations of the National Curriculum. There are KS1, lower KS2, and upper KS2 organisers, which each include sections on: -Overview; -Example Structures; -Designing; -Making and Evaluating; -Health and Safety Guidance. The resources are designed to be printed onto A3 (although can be printed onto A4), and are provided in both PDF and Word versions (so that you can edit if you want to). All images used are licensed for commercial use and are cited on a separate document (included).

These clear, detailed and visually-appealing resources offer a complete reference point for KS1 children learning about a wide range of different artists throughout their art and design study. The bundle contains 6 individual knowledge organisers on the following artists: -Andy Warhol -Pablo Picasso -Vincent van Gogh -Georgia O’Keeffe -William Morris -Andy Goldsworthy Each organiser contains comprehensive sections on: -Biography of the Artist; -Styles and Techniques; -Life Timeline; -Significant Works; -Key Vocabulary; -How do I create art like this artist? The resource is designed to be printed onto A3, and is provided as both a PDF and a Word version (so that you can edit if you want to). All images used are licensed for commercial use and are cited on a separate document (included).
