engaging text and informative diagrams. Springs introduces early
learners to simple forces via the use of everyday materials. Find
out how rubber, metal and plastic materials can transform in shape
by simply squashing, bending or stretching them.
"Hooray for clay! Projects that put clay and ceramics centre stage
are invaluable - be it in architecture, public sculpture, cups and
saucers on your breakfast table, passing on an understanding of the
material is invaluable. Clayground Collective are true clay
ambassadors. Their extraordinary work is exemplary."--Kate Malone,
Ceramic Artist; Judge, BBCTV Great Pottery Throw Down *** "This is
not a "how to" book but a "Can you?" book. There is a real passion
to discover though materials. This book challenges those with
specialist skills to engage the public in that discovery and
provides a route to get started."--Amanda Bright, Head of School of
Art, U. of Brighton *** "If you're a practitioner setting out to
work with schools and the public where do you go for advice? Clay
in Common is a great starting point."--Steve Moffitt, Chief
Executive, A New Direction *** As clay and ceramic courses decline
in schools, craft and hand skills risk being lost. Clay in Common
makes a strong case for the vital role of clay in schools and wider
society. For teachers, parents, school governors,
artist-facilitators and education policy-makers, the book has
detailed case studies with ideas for projects and activities that
can bridge school and community life. [Subject: Art Studies,

D&T Workshop is a major new series of information books devised
to inspire primary-age children to investigate, design and make a
wide range of products using different technologies like levers,
gears, cams, batteries, winding mechanisms, food technology and
more. Each book explores a different set of products and the
technology behind them. Pupils investigate existing products and
then carry out focused practical tasks which provide opportunities
to learn and practise the necessary skills, e.g. testing
alternative designs, building a specific component, or learning to
use tools safely. Each book ends with a full-scale design and make
activity that encourages children to put into practice the skills,
knowledge and understanding they have learned.
