Dear SMILE students!
Here we are, about to travel to different countries. But let's not forget that we are no ordinary school and just like at Hogwarts we will create our own travelling means of transport.
At Hogwarts students used flying broomsticks at SMILE we can use any other means for travelling.
Unleash your imagination and creativity!
Design a means of transport together with your house.
Marry Poppins travelled by umbrella, Aladdin by the carpet, Harry Potter by broomstick. What would a SMILE student use for travelling?
Let's design together our own super speedy SMILE transport which we will use, in order to travel to various destinations or just around SMILE.
Take a common object (or objects) which we can power and adjust for SMILE students' individual use.
Think about an energy efficient means too. We try to be environmentally friendly at SMILE.
Technology has evloved and we can design a HighTech travelling means for ourselves. Think about details such as speed, comfort, balance, how do you start it, what magic word starts it, what other buttons, functions does it have etc.
In order to create this collaborative product we will meet together in an online meeting on
May 19, 2021 at 17:00 CET time.
Save the date!
Wizardus+ House FUN (Fabulous Ubiquitous Navigators)
When and Where? Students will click on the house corresponding link (see the table below) which will be posted in the chat of the SMILE Assembly Hall Meeting and go to their House Meeting Room where the House Dame/Master will wait for them with the task.
House Links and Teachers facilitators
Brainstorm together with your house what object could be chosen for the means of transport. Use the link of your house from the table below to start on designing together with your house.
Be respectful of other people's opinions and ability to draw. Try to include eveyone. It is not about your artistic ability to draw. But it is more about the idea you as a house have agreed upon.
Write a short addvertisment for your means of transport in the Twin Board below.
The 6 means of transport created by the houses will be voted and one SMILE means will be chosen.
Table of links for the online collaborative whiteboard.
The voting tool will be posted as soon as we have all the 6 products ready.
