Welcome back to CT class Year 9.  I hope you had a great half-term break and are rested and ready to work;-)

Before we left you finished your designs but today we need to document our learning.  Please follow the instructions below:

1. Evaluate each design against your design specification (one way to start is: Design 1 meets my design specification because . . .then list all of your design specifications),
1. Choose 1 design and write a paragraph to justify your choice (to fully and critically justify your choice against the design specification - include pros/cons, compare/contrast against the other designs).

If you have any questions, please raise your hand I will be happy to help you.
