Author Description

A class of young children work with a local manufacturer of sports trophies. The teacher has a sort placement with the firm beforehand, as part of a whole school project linking with the local community (and as part of the school's fiftieth birthday celebrations). The children visit the small workplace. They try making trophies of their own from modelling and junk materials. They classify and sort the trophies. With materials from the firm, they design and assemble a school trophy to mark the anniversary in a production assembly line.
