Brief-
The Christmas elf has stolen all of our baubles for the school Christmas tree in the hall.
Year 2 need to make new baubles. The baubles must be bright and Christmas themed. They must also not break easily if children knock them off the branches.
Step 1-
We looked at existing products. We evaluated lots of baubles, all different colours, shapes, sizes and materials.
We decided which we liked the best and why.
Step 2-
We designed our own baubles, made out of felt so they would not break easily.
we looked at what resources we had to add detail to our baubles and thought about how we could attach them.
Step 3-
We made our baubles. We added sequins, buttons, pom poms, ribbon and some of use glued on googly eyes. After lots of practise we were able to sew the edges of our baubles together and sew some of our decorations on.
Step 4-
We evaluated our baubles against our design brief and own initial designs. We decided what went well, what could be improved and if there was anything we would do different next time.
