Sketching and drawing are very important skills in Technology. They allow us to share our ideas, designs, and technical solutions with other people. In this chapter, you will learn what the main purpose of graphics are. You will also learn about the different meanings of thick and dark lines, thin and feint lines, and dashed lines. And you will learn a little bit about scale and how to show sizes on drawings. But the most important thing about sketching and drawing is that you need to practise. So in this chapter you will learn how to do some simple sketches and how to do a flat drawing showing sizes.
Here are some questions you should ask yourself: How many doors should it have? How many shelves should it have? What should it be made of? How high and how wide should it be? How deep should it be?
Make a rough sketch to show what you think the cupboard will look like. Make a bigger and better sketch of the cupboard. Write notes next to your drawing to show where the doors and shelves are.
