Dear students, welcome to our lessons on Design and Technology, my name is Miss Eliza Vugeja. We will explore various materials such as plastics, metals, and fabrics, as well as electronic components like resistors and transistors. Safety in the laboratory is paramount; we will review important safety rules to prevent accidents and understand how to use tools and machinery correctly. Always listen to your teacher, follow instructions, and wear appropriate protective gear to ensure a safe learning environment.
