Above is the driving question and project outline for this term's project-based learning. We are learning all about places and spaces and how the different purposes of different buildings affect their designs.
We have been for a walk around Merrylands to look all at all the different buildings and their design features and we have decided in our teams which building we would like to build using the sandbox video game, Minecraft. One of our proposed building designs is below.

As part of the project, we have to send these pictures, along with our proposed design features to stage 3 kids from Homebush West Public School, who will give us feedback and some suggested changes. In a way, they are acting as our City Council.
Most of us have decided to make a video presentation for HWPS with our team, but one group, The Purple Spiders, have decided to blog their proposal instead. They have decided to make a post office and the design feature which makes post offices different from other buildings can be seen in the diagram labelled 'Front' in the picture above. Post offices need a lot of little letter boxes so that people can collect their letters.
Here is The Purple Spiders' blog post!
We have also made a video introduction for HWPS and uploaded it to our YouTube channel. On Monday we will be uploading a new video with the rest of our building proposals for HWPS, along with our proposed building diagrams. In the meantime, you can see our introductory video embedded below. Thanks for watching!
