Recap product concept drawings and revisit the term annotations from learning in Year 3:
Display the image of the pencil sharpener. Remind children of the types of labels that you might find on a product concept drawing:
Materials.
Functions.
Colours.
Brief explanations of choices.
Show the picture of a pencil sharpener and ask the children to think of one label to add, write it on a whiteboard and hold it up.
