Christmas Tree Decorations (Laser Cut) - Cross Curricular
Cross Curricular activities can be adapted to tie in with any subject. Students design basic christmas shapes using Techsoft Primary design which will be cut out using the laser cutter. Students will then decorate their designs with gel pens and glitter. Students will have the opportunity to see their designs being produced on the laser cutter.
