Salt Dough for KS3 and GCSE

 

3D design can be a challenge for remote learning. This resource includes lots of opportunities for practical work which kids will enjoy. It guides them through the making and designing process with videos modeling some of the techniques.

​

There are completed examples so kids can see what the final outcomes might look like. There are starter challenges for retrieval.

This is good for KS3 where you might want students to develop an understanding of expectations of the GCSE assessment objectives.

 

Also good for Year 10 who haven’t had the opportunity to practice skills in a range of materials.

 

KS2 would also benefit from this project.

 

The work covers about 6 lessons, depending on the amount of development teachers would expect. It also finishes by encouraging students to begin developing more ideas now that they understand how model and manipulate salt dough.

​

Kids will learn many of the techniques of working with clay which they could then use later when they are back in school.

The video below shows what is on each of the 16 pages of the PowerPoint.  The editable PowerPoint is downloadable from the shop.
