Print & practise

Practise the selected skills below. Each pack explains what it covers and what to try next.

  • Objects, materials and where they come from

    Distinguish objects from materials, follow simplified source chains, compare made and naturally occurring examples, and explain a material choice. Partial activity-backed practice; appearance alone cannot identify coatings or composites, and source chains do not prove a complete manufacturing history.
