Moving pictures DT Scheme

For the first time I was a bit disappointed with this resource. I feel that the resources for the children to use are very basic for Year 1 children and I think the examples are very complicated - the children are never going to be able to draw anything like this themselves. I feel I still have a lot of work to do to make this useable. Normally the resources from Plan Bee are very thorough.

Hi Rebecca, I am sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the resources this time, but thank you for your valued feedback about this scheme, which has been passed onto our resource creators. Please check your inbox - I have sent you an email.

Expected a bit more for £12

It’s a shame that the slides were PDF as I can’t modify them to suit my class and the topic that I have to do. £12 is rather a lot to pay without this facility.

Hello, thank you for your comments. We use PDFs for our resources to ensure that everyone can access them, no matter what version of software they have. We have sent you an email with further details on some free PDF readers and editors - we hope this helps! If we can assist you any further, you can contact us at info@planbee.com
