MHJC Learning Framework Step:

EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

• We are EXPLORING our prototype ideas by asking meaningful and rich questions for a scientific research in order to collect and discover useful scientific concepts and facts related to our prototype.
• We are EXPLORING with our scientific research so that we can analyse the research findings and investigate the feasibility of our prototype's design ideas.

PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

• We are PLANNING... so that we can… innovate, design and create a prototype to solve a particular pandemic issue.

Success Criteria: (Students can...)

• formulate rich and fertile questions for a scientific research on science concepts and facts related to their chosen prototype idea
• conduct a scientific in a small group using note-taking and note-making skills
• organise research findings of scientific concepts and facts, and then evaluate the feasibility of the prototype design ideas 
• sketch a detailed scientific diagram of the prototype design, with labels and description of each part's function

Activities & Learning Tasks:

• teacher to facilitate and conference with each group on the progress of their questions and scientific research
• scientific research: note-taking, note-making (as evidence in organised research findings)
• draw a conclusion or make decision on prototype design ideas
• sketch a detailed prototype design, labelling, function descriptions
