ST3-1VA Lesson Sustainability (60 mins) ST3-2VA As a whole class, discuss the findings of the previous lesson. iPads ST3-3VA ST3-4WS Talk what materials are easy to blow over and which were more Computers ST3-5WT stable during the activity. For this activity the teacher will bring in ST3-14BE materials such as brick, wood, tin and fibro. Students will be able to Explain/ Elaborate Brick, Wood, Tin, Fibro ST3-9ES feel the materials to determine their strengths. EN3-1A Students can then compare what real-life materials would withstand (Community EN3-8D different category cyclones (for example, what material would be best to sustain a category 2 cyclone?) MA3-2WM MA3-3WM In groups, students can then go and research a particular category allocated to them. They are to research what real-life materials would be best to sustain their particular category when building a house and how it would be constructed. Students would consider things like length, depth, double brick etc.
