Background: Task

To set up a booth for our school annual Celebrating O.W.L.E.T.S

Carnival.

Our Targets

How do we measured our success?

Target School’s VMV

1. To exhibit the 7 habits. Our school’s vision is to develop pupils into Motivated Learners, Critical Thinkers and Leaders of Character.

2. To gain knowledge and experiences.

3. To set-up a fun and exciting game booth.

The school’s mission is to develop pupils into life-long learners and responsible citizens through a well-rounded education.

4. To leave a memorable and remarkable experience.

5. To be one of the selected projects for our school Celebrating O.w.l.e.t carnival.

Our vision and mission are supported by six core values (WEGR2O) – Wise, Enterprising, Gracious, Responsible, Resilient and Open – which we strive to achieve through our learning and participation in school programme.

6. To be responsible and resilient.

We measured our success by the

amount of fund we have collected

during the carnival and the number

of participants where some of them

actually played more than once at

our booth!

choose.

Group members are constantly arguing

Affected by other groups as space is limited

We are not familiar with decision making process

We have too many ideas

Our Survey

Question: Which ball can we use for our challenge?

Type of balls Ticks Number of

ticks

Ping Pong Ball √√√√√√√√√√√√ 12

Marble √ 1

Small Rubber Ball √√√√√√√√√ 9

Golf Ball √√√√√√ 6

Our conclusion and

recommendation.

Our findings show that Toy Car

Challenge is the most suitable and

fun game for our booth.

Our Project – PDCAPDCA What we did?Plan Based on the results in our fishbone diagram.

Do

Check What work well? What didn’t work well?

Adopt/Adapt

What can be improved and changed?How can we improve the design in future?

We can use double-sided tape to

stick the cardboard instead of

blue-tack. We should have made a

stronger ERP gantry because during

the carnival, it kept collapsing as it

is highly hit by the toy car.

How can we improve the design in future?

Achievement

How did we manage the new group members’ feeling?

• We treated them as part of our group.

• We filled them with any inquiry that they might have.

• They gave more feedback of our prototype for all of us to improve our actual game.

Trial Game Day Video

Solution Innovation

• The solution was incremental innovative as a toy car set a higher level of difficulty as compared to a ball that can easily roll in any direction.

From this prototype To this final product

Our AchievementTarget Achievement

1. To be one of the selected projects for our school Celebrating O.w.l.e.t carnival.

The Toy Car Challenge was one of the selected projects by our classmates through a voting session.

We were responsible to take our duty seriously; we are also open to feedback from the participants. The carnival lasted for 4 hours which tested our resilient to monitor the game.

3. To gain knowledge and experiences.

We gained the most through this project work process because we learnt things beyond our syllabus.

4. To set-up a fun and exciting game booth.

We have seen many happy faces.

5. To leave a memorable and remarkable experience.

Feedback from our participants.

6. To exhibit the 7 habits. Through the journey of this project work, we collaborated the 7 habits that we learnt during form teacher periods using the Leader-In-Me book too.
