Bubbles  Term 2's inquiry Topic was 'Bubbles'. In room 1 the boys were divided into 3 man toy companies. Each company member had to take on the role of either CEO, marketing manager or head designer. The companies mission was to design, test and create a prototype supper bubble tool that could make super bubbles. They also had to design and create packaging for their tool to be sold in. And finally they had to create advertising for their tool in the form of a TV advertisment. The companies had most of the term to work on their projects and in week 9 we had a presentation day in which each company had to present what they had done to the rest of the class in a 'Dragons Den' style sales pitch. Here is the highlights package of the presentation day (which was the day of Michael Jackson passing away, so we made it a bit of a tribute to MJ for the assembly showing!).

__Bubblelicous__

The bubblelicous company came up with an inventive design that was completely origonal and different from all other companies designs. With their two handed opening and closing prototype they were able to create bubbles over and around small 'test dummies'!

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">CEO - Logan Head Designer - Keenan & Hamish L Marketing Manager - Declan

Bubbletastic battled for cohesion as a team! After many arguments they started to compromise and work as a unit. They produced 3 products. Although none of their products could produce 'super' bubbles they did produce bubbles of other forms, such as the 'machine gun bubbles'.

The team freestyled their sales pitch in the same style they worked through much of their project! They did however score well for a well designed eye catching package for their product.
