Second day!

Thursday November 13


We have started our investigate! Today was our second lesson and we had already started our investigate! I am going to enjoy DT a lot! We went to the library to begin with our research. For today, we were told to research about the types of wood joints, and the different types of adhesives and wood glues! We were told to research about WOOD joints as there should not be any metal present in the final storage box! I researched a little about the wood joints, but spent most of the time looking at different designs of a cosmetic storage box. I found many but there was one which caught my attention! The box looks very complicated but I am hoping I will be able to make it, successfully. The box which I MIGHT make is:




FIRST DAY! :)

Wednesday November 13 

Today was our first lesson of DT for this year. I am expecting a lot from this term. I want to learn many things, have a lot of fun and most importantly get good grades. This time we are making a storage box. The minute we were informed about this, I knew who my client will be and which problem I will be trying to solve. I am my own client as I am very disorganized and frequently loose my belongings. I have many make-up items/accessories that I often misplace. So, I want to solve this problem, by making a cosmetics storage box. I am hoping that the term will end successfully and as planned! This lesson, we just sat in groups and wrote down few disorganization problems. We came up with loads of them, but the one which caught my eye was frequently loosing expensive cosmetic items and accessories. I had a lot of fun today!
