Thursday, February 27 - PLAN, CREATE

Welcome back Wildcat Engineers!  Today is an important day in your design challenge.  Today is the day when you will be working with your partner to plan and begin creating your ski jump design.

Always keep your question in your mind as you begin thinking about your design.

How can I design a ski jump hill for a mouse that will make my mouse skier go the farthest?

Before meeting with your partner, you must create a sketch of your potential design.  Remember all of the information you researched yesterday.  You may go back and look at the resources from yesterday if you would like.  Click here to do that.

Get a sheet of white paper and begin creating your design.  Include measurements as much as possible. When you have completed your design and your partner has as well, then you may get together to see what you came up with.  Each partner gets a turn to share their thoughts.  Use the sharing sheet to guide you through the sharing and planning process.  Your sharing sheet will be turned in as a part of your overall grade.

Good luck, engineers!
