Read Iggy Peck Architect
Pull out your journal and design (draw) an invention that you will make come to life in a later task. This invention will:
be useful or helpful in some way
be made of the materials given
be created using similar tactics that Iggy used when building his architectures.
Invention time! Ask mom or dad to take a picture of this invention with a short explanation of how it works and send it to Ms. Finegan! Write down your process as you go!
Go outside and collect materials in nature! Use these materials to build a model of yourself (a self portrait!) Make sure to keep notes and write down your process along the way!
