Term 4 Technology inquiry learning

This term we have been learning about the Technology cycle-Ask (What is the problem?), Imagine (Brainstorm some solutions), Plan (Think, Draw, Label), Create ( Make and test), Improve ( Evaluate our creation and adjust the design to make it better).  
We learnt that new things are created to either make our lives easier, solve problems or to improve a product.  
We learnt how to show Integrity by: Listening to other's ideas, joining in with group tasks, managing ourselves while making our creations, sharing and discussing our own ideas, and encouraging others.

We had to make choices about the best materials to use.  We discovered that some materials are easier to cut and glue than others.  We gained practical skills such as cutting, tying knots, using a hole punch and stapler.

We enjoyed creating paper planes, parachutes, pirate boats, bridges and insects.  Here are some photos of our creations.
