Create an air raid shelter
This is one of a series of resources that are designed to allow learners to use the theme of the second world war to develop their knowledge and understanding in design and technology and engineering. This resource was inspired by the themes of the World War 2 and flight. It supports the teaching of design and technology in context by making a model of an Anderson (air raid) shelter using graphic materials.
In this project pupils will learn about the protection given to people in the second World War. They will then make their own model of an Anderson shelter from card. This activity could be used as a main lesson activity to teach learners about the second World War. It could also be used as part of a wider scheme of learning focussing on structures or as a practical task on model making.
