A good grasp of numeracy is an important tool for planning and completing projects in the Design and Technology subject area. This title has been written to assist Design and Technology teachers in teaching and reinforcing practical numeracy skills in the classroom. The units revise basic measurement, line, angle, shape and costing topics as they apply to working with metal, wood, plastics and textiles. More complex numeracy skills are covered in practical topics about even spacing, reducing waste and cutting circles accurately. The units can be used to pre-teach students the numeracy skills they require for particular projects and as revision or reference material for senior students who need to brush up on concepts and calculations that will help them to construct their individual assessment tasks. Each unit of work is self-contained although students will find a calculator useful for most activities, and some units require materials such as a ruler, set square, protractor or compass. Versatile uses Teaching benefits - Supplementary classroom lessons - Creative teaching ideas - Homework activities - Developing greater student interest and understanding - Reinforcement of learning - A fresh approach to a topic - Extension work for advanced students - Away to target student weaknesses - Preparation for assessment - Suitable for individual or group work - Exam revision - A variety of activities for home study
