Mrs. Turnbull's Year 7 D&T group have been honing their skills as designers, focusing on drawing, shading, and rendering. This week, they brought it all together by replicating a one-point perspective cityscape for their end-of-topic assessment. 👏🔧🏙️ #FantasticFriday

HOW DID I USE D&T TODAY?
Today Miss Morris used D&T to help to change the hydraulic fluid in a bike!
How have you used D&T today..?! @DarwenAcademy
Year 7 were learning about anthropometrics and the importance of its use in design. They learned how to measure each other, record data, and calculate averages. Who doesn’t love a bit of Maths in D&T?! 💡 🙌🏼🤩 @DarwenAcademy
