Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify and describe how to edit and transform a shape for use in a graphic design and a template to compose a presentation about the completed graphic design of a recycling bin to match selected success criteria.

The interactive presentation can be used to explore how to compose and publish a presentation to explain reasons for the design of a recycling bin for classrooms in the school.

This lesson is part of a computing scheme of work to get the children to select, format and adjust the properties of different shapes when creating the graphic design for a recycling bin for use in school classrooms. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
