Term1 Week6

FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

• We are FOCUSING on how to develop our technology skills and knowledge of using wood material to make a sound amplifier case.

Kia ora

In this week we will continue our design process to make a portable sound amplifier case for a mobile phone. We will learn about using the planning tools to direct our technology practice. We will start constructing a model- prototype of our designs.

We will be learning to:

• Work through the design process to make a portable sound amplifier case 
• Come up with design ideas, develop some concept sketches
  
• Write a personal design brief
  
• Create working drawings for our project
  
• construct a model - prototype of our designs

Success Criteria: I have:

•  designed and made a portable sound amplifier case for my phone using the design process 
• developped some concept sketches based on the design ideas
  
• Writen a personal design brief
• create a working drawing showing all measurements 
• create a model- prototype of my design

Activities:

• Create a mood board. Annotate likes and dislikes. Make links on the board to your project needs. Write a conclusive statement about what my project outcome needs to be able to do and be. Develop a design brief.
• Draw a concept sketch and develop.fully into working drawings, giving details and measurements
• Create a model-prototype
• Develop a Materials/Shopping list

Further Learning:

• Research how to draw a 3D shape starting with a cube and other 3D shapes. Watch the video:
