Year 9, hope you enjoyed your day off. I had a great time at the conference and learned a lot.

Today, I would like to finish the documentation for your designs and submit them by the end of class.

Remember that in order to get a 5/6 you must:

1. Generate (make) 3 different but possible designs,
2. Evaluate each design against your design specification (one way to start is: Design 1 meets my design specification because . . .),
3. Choose 1 design and write a paragraph to justify your choice (fully and critically justify your choice against the design specification - include pros/cons, compare/contrast against the other designs).

Learning Objective: The student will: generate a range of designs that attempt to meet the design specifications; compare the designs against the design specifications and identify the pros and cons of each design; select one design and explain its choice.
