This resource is a bundle checklist of all the my personal This resource contains all my KS3 Design and Technology projects for Terms 1-3. A year long resource! It includes: a checklist, all the new vocabulary words that students will encounter during the term, What Am I Learning Toward (W.A.L.T), Mark Scheme for each unit according to three major skills: Observation and analysis (OA), Experimentation and development of ideas (ED) and Realisation and evaluation (RE) and Schemes of Work. I ask students once a month to review their checklist in order for them see if they are behind in any projects or have missed any projects when absent. The vocabulary list serves as an end of unit ‘test’ to see how well the students have assimilated the new words.

This resource contains 2 different types of packaging projects which can be linked to one another. The ‘themed box’ can be used first as it focuses on paper, therefore students can work on improving their folding, cutting and design skills before moving on to the main project. The main project develops from the first by looking at an overall design image. Additionally the packaging is made from sturdier materials and more details.
