Lesson 6
Core learning objectives
Using their design portfolio as a guide to making, pupils will be supported in the further development of their craft skills. Using previously taught making skills and their understanding of tools, materials and processes they will construct their candelabra. During construction any changes to the design are to be recorded in their design portfolios.
Extended learning objectives
Using their design portfolio as a guide to making, pupils will be supported in the further development of their craft skills. Using previously taught making skills, their understanding of tools, materials and processes they will construct their candelabra. During construction any changes to the design are to be recorded in their design portfolio. Extended ability pupils will be encouraged to work autonomously and to make decisions independently.
SEN learning objectives
After discussion with the teacher, agreement is reached with regard to a design to be made. Further support may be needed in modifying designs and/or preparing templates and/or part made units in order to ensure that a pupil keeps pace and arrives at a satisfactory conclusion.
