Activities in this Lesson
- Link to cold metal project layout / transfer - Hooks / Set
Say: Yesterday you successfully transferred a project plan for a sheet metal dust pan.
What is the next step in the construction process? (folding/bending)
That is correct! Today will be all about turning our project into a three dimensional project. - PPT Cold Metal Process - Lecture

- Cut out and fold paper dust pan - Demo / Modeling
Show a copy of the attached sheet metal project plan on the LCD projector.
Explain to the students that the broken or dotted lines are the lines that they will be bending today.
Have them write on their plan which bends are safety bends and to what degree each of the bends should be made. (see attached project plan for specific degrees)
Next the teacher will cut out of paper an example of the dust pan.
After the outline of the plan has been cut out the teacher will demonstrate the bends and tape the project together.- Dust pan bends picture [ View Image ] [ Download Original ]
- Students Cut out and fold paper dust pan - Lab / Shop
Note: Pass out attached handout to students.
Quickly review sheet with students and instruct them that it is time to cut out and fold their paper dust pan.
Let students work on folding paper dust pan while you monitor their participation and move through the room to provide them with support.- Dust pan bends picture [ View Image ] [ Download Original ]
- Best Pan Competition - Closure
Instruct students that they are about to have a competition. The competition will be based off of who has constructed the best pan. In groups of 3-5 or table groups students will switch pans with a partner and check their measurements. As a group they will then decide on the best pan. The student who has the best pan will come forward to compete against the other group winners in front of the class. The class winner will be decided upon by a class show of applause.
