Focus Question: What is the task and problem you and your partner have been presented with and how will you solve it?
Activity: You are going to choose a partner (potentially there may one group of 3) and select an Australian animal from the list of animals identified in the task presentation.
Activity: You are going to choose a partner (potentially there may one group of 3) and select an Australian animal from the list of animals identified in the task presentation.
Activity: You and your partner will each draw a proposed design for animal shelter. After 10 mins you must then discuss what materials you will need to bring and what design features you and your partner will choose from each of your designs. For example, "I like the way you have chosen to design the roof and was thinking that it would look good on the walls I have designed" or "I like how you have chosen to use poles like a shade sail, maybe we could use cardboard to build a strong roof and say it would be made out of tin."

During the design phase, make a note of the recyclable materials students wish to use to construct the model of the chosen animal shelter. Use prompts if necessary.
