Technology Lesson Plans

The document outlines a learning management plan to have students build with Lego. It discusses what students already know, the intended learning outcomes, how students learn best, available resources, and the learning journey. The learning journey involves 5 lessons - 1) introducing the design challenge, 2) planning designs, 3) refining plans based on feedback, 4) creating Lego models of the plans, and 5) evaluating and completing the designs. The goal is for students to design a community area for children and young adults using the engineering design process.

Have the students get started on their design challenge by navigating to


the "Ask and imagine" page. Students download and print the "Design
challenge- Ask and imagine" Work booklet.
Students work through the booklet answering all of the questions and
completing the tasks. This gives them an understanding of how to think
about designs and what benefits and issues there might be.
Students are to critically think about their three choices to think of a final
choice and answer the questions in the booklet about that choice.

this is the last in class lesson to complete the task, however the students
have another week to complete the design in their own time (homework).
Students who have completed their design have them download and
answer the questions from the workbook "Create evaluation" on weebly
found in the create section.

Conclusion:

Students take a photo of their end product and attach it to the end of their
previous workbook which should include:
o Design challenge- Ask and imagine
o Grid paper floor plan and justified choices
o photo evidence of workings
o Final image of Lego design.
o Any evaluations and notes they would like to include at the end

Additional Lesson

The sixth and final lesson for technology will include the students engaging in the "improve" section of the Technology cycle. The students can
download and print the worksheet from the weebly to fill out. The worksheet uses the organizer "SWOT" charts. The students are to also comple
the "create evaluations" in this lesson if they have not already done so in previous lesson. Students may also use this lesson to ensure that every
