The clues
solving the 3rd to the last lock
making sure that I used all of my recourses
What materials did you choose for your build and why?
Cardboard, metal bowl and model magic. We used these to build the tower the moat and Rapunzel. Using these we were able to create the correct scene of too much rain.
Here is a picture of my plan:
Here is a picture of my first attempt at the building process:
While you test:
What are you noticing?
I noticed that it is working how we planned it to. The plan was simple and easy. I think that we could have done maybe harder?
What things are working?
Everything is working perfectly.
What things are not working?

How will you tweak this? Make this better? (Be specific and detailed!)
We will keep the pool idea but we are going to add a working zip line to take her down into the water. we will use a tiny catapult at the beginning to launch her forward into the zip line.
Do you need any new materials? If so, WHY?
We will need a rope and some more cardboard. using these we can create the zip line and the zipline cart.
Sketch your new design with labels on a piece of paper. Make sure your drawing is detailed and specifically labeled.
Insert your sketch here:
Why will this new design work better than your first attempt? What is your evidence?
She will not break her head open because it’s a safe way down.
How did spending more time on planning improve your final blueprint?
It made it so that we could do this task without touching it.
How did your group come to one final plan after brainstorming several ideas?
We all agreed it was a good plan and we edited it into a better one.
Why do you think taking more time to plan was important?
It helped us come up with a more realistic plan
Did brainstorming with multiple people help you come up with more ideas? How?
yes because my partners also had some good ideas
What would you differently during the planning process next time?
think more realistically
