Excellent work Dannie!

Your initial sketches clearly visualise your idea and your paper prototype successfully translates these ideas into three-dimensions.

Your prototype is thoughtfully designed and well made. The wings are dramatic and engaging.

Well done for testing different materials and documenting your working process thoroughly in your sketchbook. Your reflective writing is good and records your learning.

I look forward to seeing your final hat!

Hawk, the sketch for your hat is interesting. It includes strong shapes and symbolic elements. Please annotate your drawing explaining why you have designed it this way and what you want it to communicate.

Well done for making a paper prototype. The forms, structure and composition of it is very dynamic. Stick this photograph in your sketchbook and reflect on what you have learnt from making it. This will support you in making your final hat.

Jimmy, please ensure you update your Padlet regularly. I cannot leave you feedback if I'm unable to see your work.

Hannah, your initial ideas are interesting and varied. You have drawn them beautifully and are starting to think about what materials you want to use. This is very good.

Always annotate your designs with reflective writing. It is important to show not only what you want to do but also why you want to do it. For example, why a snake? What does this snake represent for you? Why do you want to use organza? How does this material connect to your concept for the hat? Etc.

Please continue to upload work to the padlet, including your prototype and materials tests.

Excellent work Joyee!

The idea for your hat is original and compelling. Well done for developing three initial ideas to explore different iterations of your design. The symbolism incorporated into your hats is clever and an effective way of attributing meaning.

Your prototype is well made and successfully translates your design into three-dimensions. Its great to see you exploring the possibilities of paper and how it can be used to create varying shapes and structures.

A very strong start to this stage of the project, I look forward to seeing your final outcome!

Charis, I think your prototype is great! In your writing you are very negative about it but there is lots to be positive about!

Firstly, you have successfully made your drawing three-dimensional using paper. Well done!

Secondly, the structure and shape of your prototype is very good. You have successfully made your design strong and visually impactful. The curved dome on top of the hat is particularly striking.

If you don't like the sun rays, reflect on how you can change and improve them. For example, do they need to be thinner or a different shape? Would adding colour help? Or making them from a different material?

It's ok if things don't go to plan, it is part of making. What is important is how we respond to the problems we encounter. Always try and react positively by identifying what you can do differently to improve.

I look forward to seeing your final hat!

Astrid, well done for making a prototype of your hat. I can see from your writing that this didn't go as planned and was more difficult than you expected. This is ok and often happens when making an idea physical for the first time. Allowing your design to evolve and adapt as you made it out of paper is a very mature and professional approach. Good work!

Please take more photos of your prototype, including details and stick them in your sketchbook. The current image is difficult to see. It is important documentation of your work is clear and thorough.

For you, the next step is doing material tests. What materials are you thinking about using?

Doris your hat design is developing nicely. Well done for prototyping it out of paper and documenting it in your sketchbook. You have also included some reflective writing which is good.

Your design is interesting, particularly the window/swing detail. I am curious how this connects to your thinking hat and what it represents. In you sketchbook please write down what the connection is.

For you, the next step is doing material tests. It will be particularly important to find a strong material for the structure of your hat as a window/swing in the middle of the hat will need support. What materials are you thinking about using?

In your reflective writing you say the shape of your hat isn't distinctive. How can you make it more distinctive? What changes or improvements can you do? When you identify a problem always try and offer a solution as well.

A good start. I look forward to see your hat develop!

The character you have designed is lovely. It is a beautiful illustration and successfully communicates the energy and personality of your character. Her outfit and hair look like a jellyfish - this connection to the sea is interesting.

Excellent work Annabelle. You have engaged with the tasks and developed your understanding and ideas.

Your artist research is good. As well as looking at Philip Treacy's designs you have thought about why they are interesting, why you like them and how they inspire you. Asking how and why questions is a very important part of research so it's good you are doing this.

Your mood board is engaging and uses colour successfully to communicate a positive feeling.

In your three hat designs you use the sun, moon and stars to symbolise hope and other positive emotions. This is interesting. I encourage you to add colour to your drawings and to start to think about the materials you want to use. You should also consider how your designs will fit on your models head, how big they will be, whether they will cover the model's face etc.

Doris your artist research is good. You have looked at Philip Treacy and made observations about his work and why it is unique. To strengthen your research also say what you like or don't like about his designs and how they have inspired your work.

Alice, your artist research is excellent - well done. You have examined Philip Treacy's work and connect your thoughts and feelings about it to your own project. This is very good, particularly the connection you make between his sun hat and what the green hat represents.

Your character design is good but can be developed. Have fun with it and try to really imagine who they are and what they like. Include lots of details about their life, personality and appearance. It is also important to reflect on how they embody what your hat represents.

Lots of interesting images are included in your mood board. You are starting to identify a visual language and specific symbols and motifs. Collaging flying birds, plants and lightbulbs together communicates creativity, new ideas and freedom.

Your mood board has inspired and informed your first had design - very good! Please upload your other two designs once they are complete.

The character you have designed successfully embodies the red hat, well done. The connection you make between puberty and having strong emotions is very good.

Your mood board includes lots of different references. I am particularly interested in the different faces you have included and the various emotions they represent. For you the challenge is designing a hat that encapsulate and communicates all these different feelings.

I am curious about the train - does it symbolise going on a journey?

The bright reds in your mood board stand out and enhance the faces that are angry. Learn from this and think about how you might use colour emotively in your hat designs.

Good work Shengwen. Your moodboard brings together specific images to communicate feelings of humour and joy with undertones of horror. Start to think about how you can use these images to inspire your own design, for example you could explore a hat design that covers the models face and distorts or exaggerates their features; or a mask with an exaggerated smile. Lots of possibilities! As you design, think about what you want to communicate to your audience and the feelings you want to inspire in them.
