Other areas at first level

Questions teachers ask

What are the technologies experiences and outcomes at first level?
There are 18, usually taught in P2 to P4. They are listed on this page with their codes, grouped by curriculum organiser.
How do I plan a P2 to P4 technologies lesson for an Es&O?
Choose "Plan this" next to the experience and outcome. Heapso opens a lesson plan set to P3 Technologies with that code linked. You can change anything before Pip writes.

Plan your next technologies unit

Heapso opens a unit plan set to Technologies, first level. Add the Es&Os you're teaching and Pip cites only those.
