Students design four words using typefaces or fonts that look like their meanings. Students just need a pencil, rubber and some colouring pencils. Aimed as KS3 or a little either side depending on the students. Good for a cover lesson, isolation work or a homework etc.

A stand alone lesson which is perfect for any KS3 or higher KS2 or lower KS4 Cover Lesson or the start of a new project. Based on the designer Alessi and designing new products for market, I based this one on unusual inspirations, but you can easily change the wording so that it mentions your own made up objects too. All you need to do is print one sheet per student (or 1 between 2) and the only other resources needed are plain paper and pencils/crayons whatever you would like them to draw with! My 2nd ever upload so I am hoping this is helpful to someone!

This is a resource that utilises Trimble Sketch-up Make (free to download) and Pixlr.com (a free-on-line version of Photoshop) to create 'drawings' of ideas that look like professional Product Design drawings. I wrote the resource after seeing numerous Product Design students struggling in presenting their ideas. Drawings were often low in standard and would consequently have a negative impact upon their coursework. All students I've given this resource to have admired how easy it is to follow and how much better their design ideas look. I've used this resource with KS4 + 5 Students. The powerpoint is 5 pages long.
