My First Creation Project

Use everything you learned to design and build your own creation!

๐ŸŒŸ The Mini Design Thinking Process
  1. Empathize โ€” Think about who will use your creation. What do they need?
  2. Define โ€” What problem does your creation solve? Name it clearly!
  3. Prototype โ€” Build a simple model of your idea using materials you have.
  4. Share โ€” Show your creation to the class and explain how it works!
๐Ÿ† This Is Your Capstone!

You have learned so much this term! Today you'll put it ALL together:

  • โœ… You can name and identify shapes
  • โœ… You can combine shapes to make objects
  • โœ… You can sketch a design idea
  • โœ… You can build a 3D model
  • โœ… You understand size and form
โœ‹ Your Creation Challenge

Design and build something that helps someone. It can be for you, your family, a pet, or a friend. Follow all 4 steps: Empathize โ†’ Define โ†’ Prototype โ†’ Share. Be ready to show the class!
