Design & Technology Department

Year 6 Summer Homework

Learning Design & Technology at The Victory Academy means that you

will be learning across 3 different areas.

1)Product Design

2)Textiles

3)Food and Nutrition

Drawing

Practice Always

Makes Perfect!

A skills you will need in every D&T area is draw-

ing. Show us your amazing skills a show us some

examples of your best drawings.

If you’re stuck:

Why not look at tutorials on YouTube?

Draw objects from around your home.

Take pictures and try tracing them to get

used to the shapes.

Making

Get Creative!

In D&T we LOVE making things.

Are you doing anything over the summer holidays?

Do you have a family member that is doing some-

thing you can help with?

Take pictures of you on your own or helping out

to build and create something. This can simply be

a toilet roll project to building a new shed.

Textiles

Try out a few

life skills!

We also LOVE life skills in D&t. Part of that is

learning sewing techniques. BUT we also know that

lots of people do textiles crafting as a hobby—

especially during a long time off.

Take some pictures (or bring in examples) of some

textiles crafting that you have done over the

summer holidays. We really want to see what you

can do! (even if it is just sewing a button on!)

Cooking

Because … Yum!

Who doesn’t love food? Well, part of what we

learn in D&T is how to cook and the importance of

nutrition.

Over the holidays, why not show off your skills

and photograph some of the food you have made (or

helped with) over the summer holidays? This can

be from a simple beans on toast to a full on din-

ner for the family! Bonus points if you can turn

these photographs into a diary of how you cook

it—imagine you’re Jamie Oliver!

History Department

Year 6 Summer Homework

Welcome to The Victory Academy History Department. During your time at Victory you will

We have set you some tasks to begin your journey into developing into a young historian.

Complete these over the summer, have fun and we look forward to meeting you in

September.

TASK 1

Family Tree -We would like to get to know you, so this task is asking you

about your family tree. Look at the example below and draw your own family

Task 2

What is a family Crest? - A family crest can also be known as a Coat of Arms or

Shield of Arms. Think of a crest like a trademark or custom stamp for your family.

Colour schemes and patterns also contribute to each crest's unique design. Even

the shield's overall shape --from round to square and all other variations --holds

meaning. There is usually a motto stamped or engraved prominently on the

crest. Each of these elements represent character traits that the family is known

for, such as strength, wisdom, leadership, agility and resilience. We want you to

research your family crest or design a new one for your family. Below is an exam-

ple of a family crest, in fact, here are some of our

Task 3

As a young historian you must understand that everything has a meaning. De-

scribe why you used certain colours, symbols etc. on your family crest? What

do they mean?.

Finally, will you be our next Young Historian? See you in September!
