Planning a DT lesson

For our end of year play, our teachers decided to make our own production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang; after the success of last years Joseph performance. In this particular lesson we have been planning then designing an invention to use in our play.


Before we could start we had to create our own learning objective and success criteria.


Learning Objective: I can design and create an invention that can be used in our play.


Context: Caracticus Pott's inventions, in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang


Success Criteria: To be successful I can:


  • I can draw a clear and labeled design; using annotation

  • I can write estimated measurments for our invention

  • I can use my imagination

  • I can experiment with different ideas

  • I can draw different views of our invention (Bird's eye, Side view, Rear and Front view)

  • My design will clearly communicate my ideas clearly to others

Ext: I can begin to think about how the invention will function and the materials needed


Brief Description: We will design the invention (Vaccum machine) considering the size and design.


Plenary: All the members of our group will review the design against the success criteria. We will then consider what improvents we could make. We will create a target for the next time we design.
