Using the colored water, accurately fill the measuring cup separately for each snowman While in the freezer, fill each cookie cutter with the appropriate amount of water Freeze them (overnight is best). Remove them from the cookie cutters and in zipper bags in the freezer immediately Repeat steps 1-9 until the required number of snowmen are reached TO USE: Place snowman, laying down, over the hole in the pie pan Make sure pie pan is secure in the base Place water collection device under the hole in the pie pan Cover each snowman with a shelter
Appendix G: Engineering Design Process Engineering Design Process Appendix H: Engineering Design Challenge Rubric Mastery 4 Proficient 3 Emerging 2 Not Yet 1 Design Team’s shelter design is completely effective and meets all given criteria. Use of the Engineering Design Process is clearly evident: They drew a plan, built a shelter, and independently identified the reason to redesign if needed and then redesigned accordingly to slow the melting process. Team’s shelter design is effective and meets given criteria. Use of Engineering Design Process is evident: They drew a plan, built a shelter, and redesigned, with some teacher support in order to slow the melting process. Team’s shelter design is somewhat effective and meets some of the given criteria. Use of Engineering Design Process is somewhat evident and the team redesigned their shelter with a lot of teacher support. Team’s shelter design is not effective. There is no sign of the Engineering Design Process, and their shelter does not slow the melting process. Redesign Team’s redesigned shelter is highly effective and meets all given criteria. Use of EDP is clearly evident and the team used their first attempt results to redesign their final product and it is more effective in slowing the melting process. Team’s redesigned shelter is effective and meets most given criteria. Use of EDP is evident and they used their first attempt results to redesign but the final product is not more effective in slowing the melting process. Team’s redesigned shelter is somewhat effective and meets one or two of the given criteria. It is unclear if they used their prototype results to redesign. Team’s redesigned shelter is not effective and does not slow the melting process. Scientific Concepts In the presentation the team displayed understanding of how all three states of matter changed throughout the process and the scientific concepts underlying their design. In the presentation the team displayed understanding of all three different states of matter but they were unable to explain how matter changes and/or the correct order of changes. In the presentation the team displayed some understanding of one or two states of matter but they did not understand how changes matter. In the presentation, the team was not able to display any understanding of the states of matter or how changes matter.
Vocab In the presentation the team displayed correct use of 5 or more vocabulary terms. In the presentation the team displayed correct use least 4 vocabulary terms. In the presentation the team displayed correct use of 2 to 3 of the vocabulary terms. In the presentation the team did not use any or used only 1 of the vocabulary terms. Mastery 4 Proficient 3 Emerging 2 Not Yet 1 Teamwork Throughout the unit, the team member not only worked well with others but also is exceptional about helping others beyond their responsibilities. Throughout the unit, the team member worked well with others and could be counted to do their part. Throughout the unit, the team member worked well with group most of the time. Throughout the unit, the team could not count on this particular team member. Presentation/ Sharing Team was able to explain step by step how they create their shelter and how the design works. Team was able to explain step by step how they created their shelter. Team was able to present their shelter but somewhat confused with design Team not present their shelter in a coherent way. Appendix I: Roles Names_____________________ Note to teacher: Depending on the size of the group, more than one architect may be assigned. I will make sure everyone in the group gets a turn to share ideas. I will make sure all architects have a turn to build. I will make sure our group follows directions. I will gather the materials needed for our design.
