Teacher models storyboard planning. Using the design plan students work with a partner. Students conference with teacher and discuss their plan and the materials that are to be used. Construction Students will need to give consideration to the finished design to make it as appealing as possible to the person who will receive it. In groups discuss what draws a customer to a product, for example toys in a toy shop.
Students list responses and share with the class.
Gather together materials for construction Students construct their moving toy. Remind the students how to use some of the tools safely. Fix a 'price' to each item. Those in plentiful supply could be free, while those that have a real cost, or are in limited supply, would carry a price. This helps to focus children on careful planning and reduces waste.
