Step One Selecting a context	Lost in the Bush Save the Bush Fun in the Bush
Step Two & Three Create questions and identify one broad question	How would you contact people when you are lost in bush?
Step Four What did I already know about my question?	You would have no cellphone coverage Lose battery life and  you wouldn’t be able charge it Dove Get a mirror and reflect It off the sun
Step Five Design your creation	⇨ Smoke Signal It was tricky to find a topic because what we already knew we couldn’t make and we didn’t have the right materials
Step Six Build your creation and write something about it	Morse Code If it has - long line. Then u do a long pull out.( Like the first one on G). If there is a . It’s a short/little pull out ( Like the first one one A). You can do the Morse code with Lights, Flags, Beeping noises and Using the smoke signal.
Step Seven Reflection	How did it go? It went really good because everything went how it was meant to go. Accepted the wood not going in the right place   What went well? Morse Code, Sort of painting and the bit where u put the burning liquid in.   What was a challenge? Getting the wood in the right place and screwing through the whiteboard
Step Eight Evaluate	What would you change next time? Don’t paint It because Me and Jack both agreed that we won’t paint it next time or just a different color What would you improve next time? Try not to get big drips on the sides

Charlotte =  I love the Morse code  and the materials you used . Livy = I like it how you have put the Morse code in because it is really helpful.
