Another great day in the Creative Industries faculty @BrightonHillSch. Yr8 have Guided Choices taster lessons. Apple swans to practice knife & presentation skills for food. Modelling ideas in 3D & line bending acrylic to make a pen holder for D&T. Great to see everyone engaged.
The Faculty was a hive of activity today. Year 11 Food had a practical assessment with @mrssfletch. @dan_duheaume showed Yr 7 how to cook soup - outdoors! @MrsC_BHCS_Tech was model making with yr 9 & 10. Mrs Iemwangsa was teaching 2 pt perspective. @BrightonHillSch#CreativeBuzz
Year 7 stepping up their graphic communication game today with @mrssfletch. Today they learnt how to do 2-pt perspective. Can't wait to see their design work in coming weeks/ months/ years with all these newly acquired skills! @BrightonHillSch@dan_duheaume#SketchLikeADesigner
Teaching Year 9 GCSE D&T how to think in 3D to build their confidence and skill in realising their ideas in 3D. Started with nets today, going to try modelling Memphis style furniture next week. #ModelMaking#ThinkingIn3D#DesignTechnology
Popped into the food room this afternoon and was treated with Year 9 making chicken Kiev's! I wish smell-o-vision was a thing! Attention to detail was incredible. Well done to @mrssfletch and Miss Lumm #FoodPrepAndNutrition@BrightonHillSch
Year 10 having a go at some basic model making to learn about nets and focus on accuracy. Building up to making a model of a camera. Great work here by one of my year 10s. #DT#ModelMaking#GCSE@BrightonHillSch
