Today students will…

01

Present

the chosen design and key features.

02

Create

a planning drawing that outlines the main details.

03

Outline

a creation plan considering resources and time.

REMEMBER

The chosen design can combine useful features from more than one earlier idea.

Do not choose only by appearance.Evidence-informed selection
Planning Drawing
Show what matters for making
L25 · 04

A useful planning drawing should show…

Main form

Overall shape and arrangement.

Important dimensions

Sizes that affect fit or the challenge limit.

Materials / joints

Where folds, layers, tabs, or braces are used.

Payload position

Where the payload sits and how it is protected.

Creation Plan
A peer should be able to follow
L25 · 05
1 · Prepare

Measure, mark, organize materials.

2 · Make structure

Create the main form and supports.

3 · Join

Connect parts in the correct sequence.

4 · Check

Confirm fit, size, access, and readiness for testing.

Students estimate time in simple chunks.C.i

Partner reads without asking you first.

I know what to build.

The chosen design is clear.

I know the order.

The creation steps make sense.

I know the resources.

Materials, tools, and important dimensions are visible.

Revise unclear details before build day.C.i quality check

Before leaving, confirm:

“If I had to start building now, I know my first step, materials, key dimensions, and how the payload will be protected.”

Next lesson

Students build the final Protect the Payload solution, demonstrate technical skills, follow the plan, and record changes.
