In the same sketchbook, spend a total of ten hours over the course of the Summer working through sketching tutorials from "product designer maker" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/productdesignermaker/videos. Pay attention to how forms are made through clever use of construction lines and boxes. This builds on the work you started in Year 9 and built on at GCSE.
