All over the world, the rainy season will see many kids building boats. These actually float! They can also be waterproofed to last longer. Begin with a rectangular piece of paper. Fold it in half as shown. Here you can see the crease in the photo below left. Now fold each edge of the paper upwards as shown. Bring the corners of the hat brim towards each other. Now take one lower corner of the square and fold it upwards. You now have a folded triangle. ...again, "squash" the triangle into a square (below middle photo).

Now pull the outer corners of the square, one in each hand. Keep pulling to unfold your boat. We like to turn the boat over and expand the hole in the bottom. Now we just need some water to float our origami boat! Here is a video showing the folding of this origami boat.

Introduction to professional skills tests. All current teacher trainees are required to pass skills tests in numeracy and literacy before they can be recommended for the award of qualified teacher status (QTS). All applicants to ITT training are required to pass the skills tests before starting their course. This includes all entrants beginning the Early Years ITT on or after 1 August 2014. The numeracy and literacy skills tests: cover the core skills that teachers need to fulfil their professional role in schools, rather than the subject knowledge required for teaching. This is to ensure all teachers are competent in numeracy and literacy, regardless of their specialism; do not replace the GCSE grade C equivalence entry requirement; are set in the context of the professional role of a teacher; all questions use real data and information which teachers are likely to encounter; and are computerised and can be taken at any of approximately 150 test centres throughout the UK.
