Year 8 - Continue with the Create.

We only have 4 microphones to work with (3 of them are mine personally - so please be careful!)

It is imperative that the room is quiet for people to record. Remember that we will submit at least 6 of the final products to the Life 'Round Here project. If there is a lot of noise in the background we will look BAD!!!!!

February 12, February 13 - Activity Day

Year 8, it's time to CREATE!

Students are expected to document, with a series of photographs or a video and a dated record, the process of making their product/solution, including when and how they use tools, materials and techniques. Students are expected to follow their plan, to evaluate the plan and to justify any changes they make to the plan while they are creating the product/solution.

Sutdents will sometimes embark upon a very ambitious project, or they may encounter unforeseen circumstances. In some circumstances a product/solution that is incomplete or does not function fully can still achieve one of the levels awarded for this criterion.

To get full marks: The student uses appropriate techniques and equipment. The student follows the majority of the plan and mentions any modifications made, resulting in a product/solution of appropraiate quality using the resources available.

Tasks:

-produce a beginning slide and ending slide with publisher,

-begin creating our project
