  1. Technology & Design The following projects have been down loaded as potential designing and manufacturing opportunities for Key Stage 3. Are they appropriate / topical? Could some of these ideas be simplified? Can we identify the learning / opportunities to develop design, graphic and manufacturing skills? What is the quality of the ‘thinking skills’ we have identified in each project? Have we progression in our exercises that develop self esteem and confidences? RA Moffatt .

  2. Are we relating the learning experiences to their World?

  4. A Propeller Vehicle

  5. Description: Don’t let the Mini SideWinder fool you – it can strike as fast as its big brother SideWinder! Capable of race times of more than 25 miles per hour, the Mini SideWinder may be smaller, but it’s just as deadly. This car features a 12-inch balsa wood body. Drill press and hobby knife or band saw are required. Approximate assembly time is five hours. Build-up construction. Additional rubber bands and pusher propellers for racers sold separately.

  6. http://pitsco.com Description:  Losing a wheel actually makes this car faster! The three-wheeled SideWinder has recorded average speeds over 25 miles per hour. The 20-inch car is light and aerodynamic, making it one of the fastest single-engine prop racers. The SideWinder features balsa wood build-up construction and can be designed with a CAD program.

  9. Could this be a transitional activity KS 2 - KS 3

  10. A possible Key Stage 3 open ended project a ping-pong launcher Each pair/group of students provided with a range of materials? Design and make a launcher to fire a ping-pong ball as far as possible.

  17. Contemporary Light This idea needs simplified for KS 3 B Part ‘B’ appears to be round in section could this be rectangular / acrylic laminated?

  18. Inspiration! Could this idea be simplified/modified for KS 3 / KS 4?

  19. Bird Feeders have endless possibilities for design opportunities.

  20. Inspiration!!!

  21. When we first saw Richard Lawson's 9-Volt light in London at 100% Design last year it was such a beautiful, elegant and simple idea that we were instantly convinced. Unfortunately–as it was part of a competition for Mathmos–it wasn't chosen for production, as it wasn't the winner of the competition… Fortunately though we weren't the only ones to write about it and so the word spread and emails kept pouring in, convincing Mathmos, that this was a great idea and that it should go into production.

  22. Amazing what wonders a little Velcro can do… This might solve the common 'honey, any idea where I put the …key' issue.A very simple and very cute organizer for all the keys you have at home. Color coded Velcro and the appropriate spots on either silver or white metal make for a very straight forward and very graphic approach to keeping your keys in one place.Lovely, especially for those of us with a tendency to 'loose' keys…
