In this module, students will collaborate to create a model of a watershed; it may be three-dimensional or two-dimensional, or include both two and three-dimensional elements.
Each student has determined their area of collaboration-either 2-D or 3-D.
The remaining collection of stream artifacts and their collection of paintings and drawings from the preceding modules are available.
The above materials are available to all students.
It may be advisable to create the model in sections that can easily be placed together for display.
Forming Issues: Teachers should demonstrate how to use Plasticene clay to form small animals; colors can be mixed to create patterns.

This island is made of rock and dirt from the Big Dig, the country's largest public works project, which is replacing a six-lane elevated expressway with ten lanes underground.
Toy barges dock at the island, and toy cranes scoop rock and dirt from them into toy trucks that wind up and up the roadway, dump their contents at the top, and wind down, down again for the next load.

Not only is the client free to let us go if he decides we are not being useful, but we probably want to go if the environment is not one where we can be productive.
We work on projects because they stimulate our imagination and intellect.
MANAGING (Productivity) -- using conceptual frameworks to understand what promotes or impedes effectiveness.
We, and all managers, are up against the Law of Requisite Variety, first described by H. Ross Ashby in 1956:4 Only variety can destroy variety.

plane in half so that the lock is on the outside.
You're going to calculate your plane's glide ratio---the horizontal distance the plane flew divided by the launch height.
To accurately measure your plane's glide ratio, you have to throw the plane so that it never rises above your shoulder level.
It can be fun to launch planes from different heights and measure how far they fly.
Ask people to predict how far they think their planes will go when they increase the launch height.
Have them gather data by launching a plane several times from each of several heights and calculating the glide ratio for each flight.

A crude representation of the stem is shown below.
Flip this over, and fit the square area under the four folded flaps on the reverse side of Kawasaki's rose.
If my memory serves me correctly, using a piece of paper twice the size of that used for the rose will give a good sized stem.
