This year as part of technology chose out of soft materials, wood tech, electronics and metal. I choose soft materials. We did technology 3 times a week for 2 terms. Our teacher for term 1 was Mrs. Wensor but she left so in term 2 we had Miss Stead.
In soft materials we learnt how to use a sewing machine and basic skills. First we just practised and made what ever we wanted to get used to using the machine. Then we had to make a bag. First we had to make a design then had to make a pattern. Then we cut out the material and started sewing.
Overall I thought that soft materials was the best subject. I learnt new skills and had lots of fun. Next year I will definitely choose this subject again.
