The Kitronik Book of Projects Vol 6 brings together a fresh collection of free D&T classroom projects designed to help teachers deliver creative, budget-friendly lessons with minimal prep. This new volume builds on our growing library of classroom-ready resources, offering practical ideas that work across mixed-ability groups and real-world school budgets. Each activity includes an approximate per-student cost so you can plan materials confidently and keep spending predictable. (Costings assume a class of 30 unless otherwise stated.)
Inside, you’ll find a wide range of curriculum-linked projects, from quick design challenges to more involved practical builds, chosen to support key areas such as design thinking, materials choices, and hands-on tool skills. Every project is supported by a simple online step-by-step guide, giving teachers clear, accessible instructions that streamline planning and help students work independently.
We’ve also created the ‘Big Page of Projects‘ that houses all volumes of the Book of Projects. This is a one stop shop for all of the free step-by-step classroom resources included in each of the volumes. This page will be updated each time we release a new Volume.
