Materials for technical use: Plastics
2 (100 min)
In previous lessons, teacher explained about plastics: what a plastic is, properties of plastic
materials, type of plastics and their application, main techniques for making plastic objects…
In previous lessons, teacher explained the phases of the technological process.
In previous lessons, students have made a Powerpoint presentation about six plastic´s
objects.
Now, students should make a Poster about plastics following the Technological Process.
Check students knowledge about plastic materials, following the phases of the Technological
Process.
a. Find information about plastic objects and try to sum up and prepare a writing and a
speaking while their class mate listening to others and then, they ask and answer questions.
b. Work in pairs and practice reading, writing, listening and speaking in English.
Learning about plastic objects following “The Technological Process”
