Our Perfect PBL



This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about design and the big question was; How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product?

First we learned what STEAM stood for.
S for Science
T for Technology
E for Engineering
A for the Arts
and M for Maths
Then we were given challenges. The first to make a chair using newspaper, string and straws that was able to hold a figure made out of multi-link blocks.
Then; make a table that was able to balance M&Ms for the team. We were much better at the second challenge because ... We Knew How to use paper and string Much better from before because you learn from your mistakes

In Literacy we learned to write up science experiments and to write a technology report using the design process of ask, imagine, plan, create, improve and share.

Our next step was to form teams and ask ourselves the big question again.
How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product? Our aim was to create enough products or experiences and sell it to raise money for charity.

My team made this…We made an Undertale eye Spy Which wasn’t a hit so next time we're gonna do something else

 My Reflection

My highlight from this PBL was Working Hard And Getting $30
Even though Nobody Came And i'm surprised that people Came and played

Next time I would Work Harder and do more work In a smaller amount of time and pick a more popular Item to make
