  Aim
 
  To produce a resource pack to support teachers introducing the QCA Exemplar scheme of Work at KS1 and KS2.
   
  Description
   
  The project will involve:
   
 
Collecting images/photographs of mechanisms and commercially produced products that cannot be brought into the classroom, so that the children can evaluate and discuss them
Suggested questions and activities to stimulate investigation, disassembly and evaluation activities
Teaching aids for use in demonstration purposes, i.e. cam models, models of stable structures
Simple finished models and photographs of children’s work to show what can be done
Design sheets, questionnaires and evaluation sheets for children and teacher use
Examples of suitable materials i.e. plastic sheet, wood and fabric, that could be used with each project with suggestions of how to use them
   
  Outcomes
   
 
Teaching resource pack and exemplar materials specifically linked to units of the QCA scheme so that the teacher has everything he/she needs to introduce the unit to the children
Resources tested in schools
