Not really, i have been looking at the curriculum now though. what grade do you want to follow?

# data[].attributes.body
I have been looking at the years 3 and 4 content descriptors.
Recognise the role of people in design and technologies occupations and explore factors, including sustainability that impact on the design of products, services and environments to meet community needs (ACTDEK010 - Scootle )

# data[].attributes.headline
Hmm...maybe an older grade. We would be able to do more with them? Has it got to be design and technology or just one?

# data[].attributes.body
Ok year 4 then?

# data[].attributes.body
from what my understanding is mainly has to be Design and Technologies with a little bit of digital

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah that's what I get too. I like that CD!!! That's a good one for sure

# data[].attributes.body
ok cool! any ideas on what we could create follow that CD then?

# data[].attributes.body
Could be a good assignment where they build a new age city or something. Each group could have a particular role....engineer, gardener ect. And all parts have to work together to create a sustainable city of the future?

# data[].attributes.body
haha wow! that is a great idea though!

# data[].attributes.body
haha really? could we do it in 10 lessons though??

# data[].attributes.body
What about something around gardening, where the kids have to try and create continuos water supply to the garden so they dont have to keep watering?

# data[].attributes.body
Ok sounds good. We have to make it too so what would we make?

# data[].attributes.body
some sort of simple irrigation system

# data[].attributes.body
we have to create whatever we decide on and take 5 photos of the process as well

# data[].attributes.body
ok using like straws with holes in it and drip taps down the side of the bottom of the garden?

# data[].attributes.body
ok that's cool. I can make it if you like? I know you have your honeymoon coming up after Christmas.

# data[].attributes.body
Yea something like that! can make the garden out of cardboard boxes or something?

# data[].attributes.body
I'm just going to youtube it to see if that are any tips there

# data[].attributes.body
Yea if you would like to make it that would take some stress off of me i have another assignment i need to finish before the honeymoon as well

# data[].attributes.body
yeah not a worry at all. Theres not a lot of info on youtube about the subject

# data[].attributes.body
How about students make a little gadget to see how much water a plant needs?
like use a reed or something....hold it up to the plant to see how much water it already has and then water it accordingly....so we are beining water wise and help the plant live as long as possible too

# data[].attributes.body
Are we putting all these idea's in the brainstorm section?>>>>

# data[].attributes.body
Yea that sounds good! is there more info on that, that you have found?

# data[].attributes.body
Hahah nah I just made it up.
Not 100% sure it would work but it would be very interesting

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah good idea!!!

# data[].attributes.body
Growing certain types of veges and fruit in regards to where the school is located? Climate impacts and so on

# data[].attributes.body
Yea i just thought when we settle on what we want to create we could start a new column to talk about how we are going to create it

# data[].attributes.body
We could even do a variable experiment. Get other schools involved in different areas all growing the same product and students can see how climate impacts each vegetable/fruit

# data[].attributes.body
Sounds like you are on a winner to me!

# data[].attributes.body
Then they could set up skype interactions and blogs as part of their technology aspect

# data[].attributes.body
Awesome. Ok so we are going with the whole garden theme. Sounds good. The CD says that they are to recognise the role of an occupation? Gardener and water conservation and product management?

# data[].attributes.body
Yea, maybe the students could interview the school groundsmen about how they look after the plants and water them?

# data[].attributes.body
Yesss! very good idea!

# data[].attributes.body
ok cool, so what exactly are we going to create for the five photos?

# data[].attributes.body
hmmm lets have a think. Something really creative

# data[].attributes.body
I could make a water testing devise. Its funny....my dad is actually a gardener and could help me make something?

# data[].attributes.body
It could be like a soil tester. It could test the PH levels and the water levels?

# data[].attributes.body
Well thats handy!

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like students should still be in groups though and each group makes something? like one could be the engineer, one could be a scientist, one a gardener and so on and they have to work in groups to make a sustainable garden

# data[].attributes.body
Like we can make one of the devises as an example but I think it would be good for students to explore how occupations work together for the better. They could learn about everything in like the first 7 lessons and then have their own exploration time and come together in the end and give a presentation. That way we cover all the stages of learning

# data[].attributes.body
Yea i like the idea of group work, one student create the garden, one create the water device and so on...

# data[].attributes.body
Yep perfect. After they have learnt everything as a class they can apply there knowledge to the group circumstance.

# data[].attributes.body
Should we start these milestone headings?

# data[].attributes.body
Yea that sounds like a good idea!

# data[].attributes.body
| Week | Learning Objective | Activity focus

# data[].attributes.body
what checklist? the milestones thing he created for us

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah...it says we need to record zoom meetings?

# data[].attributes.body
no i heard in the lectures that we dont need to record zoom meetings its just one of the ways we can show that we have worked together.
Peter has said he doesnt care how we do it as long as there is evidence that we have collaborated and worked together

# data[].attributes.body
Ok wonderful. Sounds good! ok lets start then

# data[].attributes.body
Recognise the role of people in design and technologies occupations and explore factors, including sustainability that impact on the design of products, services and environments to meet community needs (ACTDEK010 - Scootle )

# data[].attributes.body
side note - we also need to distinguish who is saying what so they know who is talking when we submit the PDF.

# data[].attributes.body
Each student group will be allocated a $20 budget in which case they can use to create their own technology creation.
Each group will be given a craft catalogue to help them with creation ideas in regards to the materials to be used appropriately.
These materials might include straws, tape, paddle pop sticks, plastic sheets.

Oh haha ok can we change our writing colour?

# data[].attributes.subject
Oh haha ok can we change our writing colour?

# data[].attributes.body
im not sure haha playing around with it now to figure it out

# data[].attributes.headline
ok sounds good. Also I have to leave for work in half hour just and FYI

# data[].attributes.body
Yea that sounds good :) we will just keep in touch and do what we can when we can!
What are we creating though? the water meter thing? or a whole garden with the water meter

# data[].attributes.body
each group will create their own thing to make the whole garden sustainable. Ill make like a water tester thing as part of the science occupation. Sound good?

# data[].attributes.body
but for the 5 photos we need to take what is it that we will create?

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah so ill make a soil tester. Just with a read and a PH stick and make it all nice looking with carboard

# data[].attributes.body
pic 1: gathering materials and drawing a plan.
pic 2: adding the reed and the PH stick tog

# data[].attributes.body
oh ok yep im with you know!
Sounds good :)
