My
st 1
year In CDT
Louisa Lucas
Profile Hi my name is Louisa I live in wallyford with my mum, dad and my sister. My sister is 14 turning 15 this year. My whole family is from Ayrshire. But My Auntie, Uncle and my two wee cousins live in Australia. My mums cousins also live in Australia with there 4 kids, they have there own stables but the rest off my mums family are farmers. Luckily I still have my dads family, my great aunt and my mums mum. When I am not at school I love to go Horse Riding. When I am out on the horse I mostly like to go up into the hills and going for a canter. I also do Rock Climbing, Drums and Gymnastics. Out of all my hobbies I mostly prefer riding. My favourite subject is probably P.E. But I also like Home Ec. When I am older I would like to become an Equine Vet. If I didn’t get that I would like to do something with Horses.
My Work
Dice In 1st year at the grammar in CDT one of the first things that we started was on the computers. We fist started on the dice practice piece. We had to go onto a program called Photo Shop, you can do many things on this program but one off the things that we did was our dice. We did two sorts of dices. 1. The Manuel dice to the left of the screen and the dice done by the computer is to the right of the screen.
Coat Hook My first project in metal was my coat hook. Out of all the projects in CDT in first year I would probably have to say that the coat hook was the most difficult. It was a great project to do but a hard one too. The best bit of making the coat hook was probably the bit where you had to cover it in a black powder that turns into liquid.
Trinket Box
Out of all the projects I have done in 1st year I would have to say that making the trinket box was the best. At the end off the project I was proud of my self for what I had achieved.
EVALUATIO
At the start of 1st year in CDT I would probably say that enjoyed the practical more that the graphics. When I was working in the metal work room, working on my coat hook I would say that I found it quite hard. I have defiantly gained more trust in myself to be able to complete something by myself. When it came to my last project I didn’t need any help at all. When I get to choose my subjects in 3rd year I wouldn’t be able to say that I will definitely take CDT. But overall I had a good year in CDT.
