The pupils enjoyed using the various tools in the DT room at RSS as they worked in groups and pairs to make a variety of everyday equipment's such as one pupil held one end of the wood and another used the saw to cut the pieces they needed. The pupils said they were making "a gaming chair". One of the pupils showed an interest in the knitting machine as they moved the needle with support and thread in the different motions of up and down whilst along the edges of the quilted stream. They said they were "making a pillow".
After some time of the lesson the pupils showed an interest in going outside as they took a mountain bike and wooden car they had been made out of natural resources. The pupils worked together well while one took the lead role of thinking of ways to tie the rope around the mountain and attach it to the wooden car. The pupil said "what we need to do with the rope is tie it to the back of the bike and then the person on the car can hold the other end". The pupils took it in turns to have a go on the bike and the wooden car.
