Description
Design and technology involves children learning through processes that include identifying needs and opportunities, generating and developing ideas, planning, making and evaluating. These strands are brought together through the use of: case studies analysing children’s learning and the teacher’s roles; and practical ideas and approaches to National Curriculum requirements based on the collective experience of committed and enthusiastic teachers. The second edition fully reflects the latest revisions in the National Curriculum and links with other curricular changes in the intervening years. Specific links are made to the National Strategies for Literacy, Numeracy, and ICT; to the National Standards for Subject Leaders; to Science and the other foundation subjects; to the QCA Scheme of Work for D&T; and to new initiatives in citizenship and creativity.
