A help sheet with space for samples of sandpaper to be stuck on. This help sheet was made with a low ability un-resilient group in mind but could be adapted to suit any. There is a side showing/explaining sandpaper. On the other side are the common excuses or reasons I get for not completing work to standard or ‘complaining’ after 5 minutes graft… There are also the tips I give to students to maximise the results when they are sanding by hand.

Some themed mini cupcakes I drew on Illustrator to use in my form for birthdays. This and matching candles for the names. Each one is themed around an event that usually takes place in that month. For example, December is a Christmas tree and September is Back to School. **There are also some blank ones for people who want just one colour cake or rainbow. ** Resource is paid based on the amount of time it took for me to draw them individually.

A pencil bookmark/table prompt/checklist for improving students written work. Meant for use primarily for secondary school students but can be adapted for Primary level students. It is pretty self explanatory once you download the file. Originally this was made during my teacher training. After finding these at the bottom of a box at my parents, I decided to share the digital version on TES. The font used on the pictures for the headings is one called ‘coffee+tea’ downloadable from DaFont.com. For my downloads, I have changed the font as it was only a demo one.

A booklet for supporting some basic drawing skills in Art Design Technology. Suitable for KS3 and KS4.

Time consuming venture reflected in the price. Workshop tools display showing hand tools and workshop machinery. This was made for my classroom wall where there was nothing visual for the students to look at. The signs are made with this room in mind but is adaptable for any workshop. The focus of each is to show the tool, a working method and then what the tool is used for. Some tools are similar but show a different technique. Examples are included above. PowerPoint file included for easier personalisation. Fonts are embedded in the files - I called my display ‘Don’t call it a Thingy!’ as students were regularly forgetting the right word.

GIANT does not cover it! I wanted to make an Eat Well Plate/Guide for my colleague - it must be just over 1.2m tall when printed onto A3. I photoshopped the images and the information and based it on the original government guide. Although, I am biased, this is a lot more visually appealing and great to refer to during lessons. Files are Adobe Illustrator and PDF to print. Please leave a review!

A page layout guide, tips for each page and guidance on how to write different sections. This was a labour of love and has been the best guide that I have given my students.

A pack of display sheets/work aids/revision cards (whatever you choose to use them for) for AQA DT GCSE. This resource is also including the 12 new diverse designers added to the list in the specification June 2022.
