2. Now, make a step-by-step plan of what you will do to create your poster using Word 2010 and Smart Art  AND estimate how long it will take you.

Example:
    1.  Open Open Office Presentation, 1 minute

Welcome back Year 6. I hope you had a fantastic mid-term break and are ready to continue our project.

 1. 15 minutes typing, then

 2. Plan - Criterion C (maximum 6)

• What is the "Plan" stage of the MYP Design Cycle?  According to the MYP, "Students are expected to construct a plan to create their chosen product/solution that has a series of logical steps, and that makes effective use of resources and time. Students are expected to evaluate the plan and justify any modifications to the design."

Task: 
First, let's look at the coloured strips of paper.  They consist of a yummy recipe for chocolate cake.  We will work in pairs and put the strips of paper in order.

Next, we will glue the strips onto paper.

Well done Year 6.  You have created a production plan for making a yummy chocolate cake;-)
