What the work shows

Raukawa shows he understands that using a production line allows a lot of candles to be made that look the same. In the making of his candle Raukawa shows that, in a supported learning environment, he is able to carry out all activities and to sequence tasks in the correct order (except one) and that he is able to use some technological language in the context of candle-making.

The following sections detail the work, and indicate what was achieved at each stage.
