Design & Technology

Our DT topics.

 

Intent:

  • To instil a curiosity of how things are constructed and made.
  • To develop an interest into different areas of DT and the process involved in making a final product.
  • To encourage children to be independent thinkers when choosing how to carry out their own DT work.
  • To encourage children to be critical thinkers in order to evaluate both existing products and their own final DT work.
  • To develop skills needed when choosing appropriate tools for the task using tools to produce a final product.
  • To relate our learning in DT to real life and look for opportunities where learnt skills can be used.

 

In every year group we have 3 main elements of the DT curriculum; Food Technology, card/wood work and textiles.

There are 3 elements to the teaching and learning process for DT in each year group and are as follows:

 

  • Research
  • Planning and Design
  • Materials to create and make.

 

Here is the progression of skills grid to show our expectations for our DT curriculum in each year group:
