    Lesson plan

    1. Recap and recall

    Take the opportunity to remind the children of Design and technology projects they may have participated in before.

    Referencing specific units is unnecessary, but asking the children who they made the products for and what they did, will allow them to recall that their designs had a purpose.

    They may also have made things for people outside school, like birthday cards or cakes. These events are also good reference points for children to make links between making something and having a reason for doing so.
