Term 4 PBL

Hello and welcome back to my blog today I will be telling you about my team 4 PBL.

This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about design and the big question was; How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product?

First we learned what STEAM stood for.

S for Science

T for Technology

E for Engineering

A for the Arts

and M for Maths

Then we were given challenges. The first to make a chair using newspaper, string and straws that was able to hold a figure made out of multi-link blocks.

Then; make a table that was able to balance Mn Ms for the team. We were much better at the second challenge because it was a table not a chair and we used m and m and not multi- link blocks

Here's the link to my technology ling Technology template

In Literacy we learned to write up science experiments and to write a technology report using the design process of ask, imagine, plan, create, improve and share.

Our next step was to form teams and ask ourselves the big question again.

How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product? Our aim was to create enough products or experiences and sell it to raise money for charity.

My team made this Bath fizzes witch are basically bath salt

Reflection

My highlight from this PBL was making the market day product because we all worked as a team and competed it in time for the market day. Our team worked very hard for the market day and I think we make a good team

Next time I would Think it out for what to make because we first chose to make Bath bombs and lip scrub but then we ended up just make bath fizzes.

Now It's time for you guys to have a question if you have to make a product for your market day what would you make?

Bye
