7 lesson unit including an editable MTP plus 7 separate lesson packs. Everything you need for a half term's worth of engaging and original art and DT is here, matching perfectly with any Space or planet Earth topic and the 2014 curriculum.
We have endeavoured to use: new, unconventional, creative and modern ideas that will really engage children, but also use familiar materials for teachers that are common to all schools or easy to obtain. Children will build, discuss, design, plan, create and evaluate throughout, as they construct 3D models and 2D art including the unit's culmination: a study of the Earth's structure leading onto a lesson full of experimentation, creativity, challenge and purpose.
Every lesson has cross-curricula elements including: reading comprehension, writing, geography and science plus a reflective self-evaluation sheet. This whole unit is easy to teach, rewarding and will provide many items that children will treasure for a long time. Adaptable for KS1
