Lesson Planning

Children look at photographs of toys from different ages. Then they set up a photography studio and take photographs of a toy to show the features of the time in which it is made.

Teaching Outcomes
To explore photographs of museum toy artefacts and identify whether they are old or new.
To use digital equipment to take photographs.
To write labels to accompany a photograph of a toy.

Children will:

• Use digital cameras or tablets to create full photos and close ups of a focus toy.
• Take a selection of photos from a toy that show features reflecting the toy’s age.
• Write labels to accompany photos of toys.
