Learning Observed and Vision Principles

In the second half of Term 4, all of the OrmPS learners have been participating in Trash to Flash - turning old used items into something new and usable. All of the LH1 learners began this journey by spending time looking on the LH1 Pinterest account. Everyone selected a category that they were the most interested in. Kim, Sameeha, Saniya, Louisa and Cassandra all selected Pets & Animals. They were curious about making a penguin out of an old plastic bottle. However, before they could make this, they had to go through a test run with the Design Thinking Process. As a group, all of the Girl’s Fashion and Pets & Animals learners made ladybug fridge magnets. The girls then took the template we used as a larger group and the personalised it to their penguin creation, demonstrating their capability with understanding the design process. Collaboratively, they shared this template and filled it in on Google Slides.
