Home Based Learning Activity/project: Wood Craft and Planning

(0)
A 4 hour learning activity/project that encourages independent learning to meet set outcomes. This activity was developed as a short project based learning activity to compliment the work that the pupils do in school. There are 5 milestones for the pupils to complete using the resources provided to answer a driving question. Driving Question When making a product for someone how do you know which materials are the most suitable, which size of material to order and what the cost will be? How can you ensure you are not left out of pocket after charging the customer? In the resource you will find an overview sheet and 5 suitable resource sheets to help pupils complete the desired outcomes. Description of Project Whether you are a builder, carpenter, roofer, painter you will always need to buy the materials you need to make a product. Sometimes you are making a product to sell or providing a service and you will not want to be out of pocket. Whenever you plan to make a product at home or in work you will need to know how much material you will need to make the product. If you order too little or the wrong size you will not be able to make the product. If you order too much you will be left with waste and will end up costing you more. Before you start to make, you should plan out the exact size and quantity of a material you need and which stock form you need to order to get the shapes you need. You should then budget your product to make sure you can afford to make it or too calculate the cost of the product to enable you to make a profit Wooden Table You have been approached by a customer to make this simple coffee table and has given you a budget of £100. Before you make it you will need to work out which material would be the most suitable, how much material you need, what stock form you need to order. Then you will have to calculate how much it will cost to make to make sure it is profitable for you to make it within the budget. Man does not work for free!

New Years Resolutions / changes Assembly form time PSE

(0)
An assembly I gave on New Years resolutions looking at why changes are better than resolutions. You will need to change the first couple of slides to add your own example of your resolution to tailor it for you but the rest offers information on why we fail, what is a better alternative to resolutions and how to think SMART about targets for change.
