The booklet accompanies and develops the content of the short videos introducing the workshops. The activities here complement the Bannockburn House modelmaking activity.  \nThe workshops are intended to encourage participation, develop or refresh applied knowledge and practical skills and be enjoyable. The target audience is P5 to S2 pupils, e.g.: on average Curriculum for Excellence learning levels 2 and 3. Curriculum links at these two levels are contained in this booklet. The concepts and activities presented in each workshop provide a taster of real-life skills in a variety of work settings. The workshop ideas are also intended to be adaptable for adult learners as well as for children and young people at other learning levels.  \nEach workshop description begins with learning outcomes, suggestions for where to deliver the workshop and a list of equipment needed, and is followed by a series of thinking, talking and hands-on activities.  \nI hope this booklet proves to be helpful and useful for Bannockburn House volunteers’work with local young people, teachers and youth workers and provides a basis for adapting and creating your own workshops. If you have any questions, suggestions or feedback about this booklet or would like to discuss delivery of inperson workshops, please contact Dr Nicky Imrie at [nickyimriexl8@gmail.com](nickyimriexl8@gmail.com)  \nContents  \n1.

Measuring  \nGetting started  \nIn this workshop participants will be introduced to basic concepts and hands-on techniques for measuring buildings both outside and inside.  \nBy the end of the workshop participants will have:  \n• thought and talked about locations and situations where measuring distance and height occur and what equipment and units to use  \n• tried out a variety of practical methods to measure distance  \n• measured accurately the footprint of part of Bannockburn House (or another familiar building)  \n• tried out practical methods and used trigonometry to calculate estimated heights  \nWorkshop activities can take place either outdoors or in a large indoor space or both combined, depending on the time of year and weather conditions, current COVID safety regulations and numbers of participants.  \nPlease ensure you have permission to work in your desired location(s) and have carried out a risk assessment of the workshop location.  \nFor this workshop you will need:  \n• tables and chairs or clipboards  \n• plain and squared paper, pencils, pens, rulers, erasers  \n• long tape measures (30m or 50m), trundle wheels, metre sticks  \n• a scientific calculator; scientific functions are available in smart-phone calculators or the Google calculator  \n• cones  \n• chalk, wool or string  \n1.1 Thinking and talking about measuring distances  \nA general discussion or quiz altogether in one large group or in smaller groups. Answers to the questions could be discussed, written down or drawn. A set of flashcards displaying answers to each question could also be prepared.  \nQ: Where and when would you want to measure distance?  \nQ: Who would want or need to measure distances?  \nSuggested answers:  \n• in school subjects such as maths, technologies (craft and design and textiles), art, geography/social studies, P. E. (throws and jumps in athletics)  \n• setting out a football/hockey pitch, badminton/basketball/netball court, running track  \n• planning a journey by public transport, car, bike, on foot, wheeling, with dogs (or cats)  \n• doing DIY  \n• working as a builder, surveyor, architect, scaffolder, roofer, joiner, electrician, plumber, bricklay","cbCaipNDLZHd1cn1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipNDLZHd1cn1","pdf",526712,17,"English","# Measuring workshop\n## Getting started\n## Thinking and talking about measuring distances\n## Trying out a range of methods to measure distances\n# Scale workshop\n# Drawing workshop\n# Curriculum for Excellence links\n# Resources","[{\"question\":\"What are the three connected workshops about?\",\"answer\":\"The workshops introduce measuring buildings, understanding and using scale, and drawing buildings freehand.
