The resource contains photos and facts about the inventions for you to present to your students. This resource could be used as part of a topic on Ancient China, inventions or technology. You could show the resource to your class, use it in class discussion or to inspire a creative project.

I wrote this short story to illustrate the importance of bravery, friendship and being yourself. Perhaps you could use the resource in a PSHE lesson or an assembly, and discuss the themes the children find in the story.
