Transport in the Future

 We were posed a question about what will transport of the future be.

The consensus was that people would have flying vehicles.

This created a lot of discussion.

  • would it cause pollution
  • would it ruin our view - we won't be able to see a beautiful sky - it would be full of vehicles
  • would people be able to fly whereevre they want or would there be roads up there - we decided you would probably wear a VR headset which would show the roads.
  • would there be different heights that people would fly at - e.g. 18 year olds at a low height and more experienced drivers higher up.
  • What would happen if you ran out of fuel - would you just drop out of the sky or would your vehicle know you are going to run out and just take you down to the ground.
All interesting thoughts.



Brain Investigation

 We had a discussion about what the brain does. Here are some of our thoughts.


We also started a discussion about how our brain dreams and what makes nightmares.

We also discussed what our brain doesn't do - control other people, always make decisions that are good for us.



Squiggles

 Today we had a series of squiggles that we had to complete. We could make the squiggles into anything we wanted. We then had to use 3 of our squiggles to make up a story. 

It was not easy.

Power Thinkers Keys

 Lola and Reece decided to rank animals according to their level of power - then decided to create some actions that go with it.



One of the challenges was to make a paper plane fly without using human power - throwing or dropping it.
Here are some of the attempts.

  • Power takes many forms

  • Power is always present

  • Power has an impact

  • Power can be natural or constructed

  • Power can be potential or actual


We had to make a model of power.
