Week 1: What is graphics? Week 3: Perspective During this module we will view looking at 1st, 2nd and 3rd point Graphics are visual presentations that advertise inform, brand, market and entertain, which can be displayed on walls, canvases, computer screens, paper, perspective. illustrate, billboards, installations etc. Can you sketch and identify what perspective the following

Examples are photographs, drawings, line art, graphs, diagrams, typography, shapes are? numbers, symbols, geometric designs, maps, engineering drawings, or other images.

Graphics often combine text, illustration, and colour. Graphic design may consist of the deliberate selection, creation, or arrangement of typography, in a brochures, fliers, posters packaging and web sites etc.

Week 2: Design a style for each of the words:

METAL and SAND Week 4: Vanishing point

Perspective drawing aims to show distance in a realistic way.

Objects that appear far away are smaller and close objects are

larger. We can see that the lines all meet at one point, this is

called the vanishing point.

• Think carefully, not only about the style but the colour scheme you intend to use.

• Metal can be bolted together and so the word could be composed of beams of steel bolted together.

• Sand is made up of flowing grains. An hour glass is often used as a simple egg timer in a kitchen. Could the word be shaped like an hour glass?

The vanishing point appears on the horizon line. D&T: Graphics

Crating:

Drawing boxes or ‘crates’ is a useful method for creating a 3D sketch or drawing. Crating is imagining the object you are drawing is inside a 3D box. The box is drawn faintly and then the object is sketched inside. Extension: Render the letters with colour to add shade & depth

D&T: Resistant Materials – Wood & Timber Products

Resistant Materials Natural Wood (wood cut and used straight from the tree) … are materials which require special tools & equipment to cut, shape join There are two main categories of natural woods; 1) Softwoods (like Pine & Fir) 2) Hardwoods (like Oak & Mahogany) etc. Eg) wood, metal, plastic etc.

Softwoods come from needle Wood & Timber Products leaved, cone bearing trees … may be divided into two main categories; 1. Natural Wood Hardwoods come from broad 2. Engineered Wood leaved, fruit/nut bearing trees

Pros & Cons Hardwoods are usually (but not always) harder, heavier, stronger and more durable than softwoods but take Generally wood is; longer to grow. Hardwoods are therefore usually more expensive than softwoods. In UK, Europe and North • Widely available America, most softwood trees are evergreen (keep their leaves all year round) but most hardwood trees are • Highly versatile deciduous (lose their leaves during winter). • Strong & tough • Easy to work with The process by which trees are first felled then cut up into planks or ‘boards’ is known as ‘conversion’. • Attractive • Relatively cheap However, it can be prone to warping (bending) and will eventually rot/decay Engineered Wood/Manufactured Board unless protected. Manufactured board or ‘engineered wood’ is made from fibres, chippings, blocks or layers of natural wood bonded together with resin (a type of glue). Manufactured board is useful Common Softwoods; because; Pine, Fir, Spruce, Cedar • it uses up much of the waste wood, sawdust etc from sawmills • it can be made into bigger sheets than natural wood (which is limited by the size of the tree) Common Hardwoods; • It is less prone to warping & bending Oak, Beech, Mahogany, Teak One common type of manufactured board is Plywood, which is made up of thin plies (layers) of Common Manufactured Boards; natural wood which are compressed and glued together. The plies are arranged so that the Plywood, MDF, Chipboard, Blockboard grain in each layer is at 90° to the grain in the layers on either side. This makes plywood especially strong for it’s weight. Plywood always has an odd number of layers so that the grain Environmental Issues on the outer plies matches. Plywood is easy to cut and shape and gives a good finish when varnished or painted.

Learning focus: To understand the difference Oxygen Water Element A substance between an element, compound and mixture made up of one Hydrogen Salt type of atom

Elements Compound A substance - Elements are substances that cannot be broken made up of two down into any other substance. or more atoms - All elements can be found on the periodic table. that are chemically For example: oxygen (diagram 1) bonded Diagram 1: oxygen

Compounds Mixture A substance made up of two - Compounds are substances made up of two or more or more atoms chemicals chemically bonded. that are not For example: water (diagram 2) chemically bonded Diagram 2: water Pure A material that is Mixtures only made of one - A mixture contains different substances that are not chemically bonded to substance i.e. each other. elements or For example: salt water (diagram 3). compounds

Impure A material that is Mixtures can be: composed of 1. A mixture of elements more than one 2. A mixture of compounds type of particle 3. A mixture of elements and compounds Diagram 3: salt water i.e. mixtures Chemistry: Year 7 Matter (3 of 3)
