Four exercises that can be used within the context of KS3 Design & Technology to show how the molecular properties of a substance affect its material properties.

CPD

The project has allowed the three teachers involved to develop more of an understanding about areas of technology teaching which they are not usually involved in. It has also allowed them to explore the animation features of PowerPoint and realise how powerful this can be. It has also allowed staff to explore cross curricula linking with science and develop these links through practical applications.
