Design & Technology Intent Vision
At Crabtree Farm, through an engaging DT curriculum, we aim to inspire our children to become the next engineers, designers, chefs, and architects.
Design & Technology Curriculum at Crabtree Farm
At Crabtree Farm we support our teaching of the National Curriculum for Design and Technology, through the use of the Design and Technology Association's progression framework. The D & T Progression document details what the children learn in each year group and how they develop their skills and knowledge during their time in primary school. Have a look to see what your child is learning in D & T!
Our Learning in Design & Technology
In the spring term, the children in F1 have been very busy. As an adult led activity, they followed a recipe to make porridge after reading Goldilocks and the Three Bears. They made their favourite traditional tales characters working out how to best attach the different materials. Also, they used the blocks to make bridges and retold The Three Billy Goats Gruff story. As always, they enjoyed playing outside building with the crates.
In the spring term in Year 5, the children have completed a textiles project. They researched, designed, made and evaluated a tool belt to use in their gardening sessions. The children showed good perseverance skills when it came to sewing and threading needles. They were very proud of their finished products and most children were able to attach pockets and fastenings.
