Project Brief<br />
A SUN CHIME<br />
The problem<br />
The school gardener wants a new product to decorate the school<br />
grounds with. He doesn’t just want a sun catcher or a wind chime,<br />
but a combination of both —a sun chime.<br />
1. You need to design and make a<br />
sun chime made from materials<br />
that will catch the sunlight and look<br />
dazzling, and materials that will<br />
make a pleasant sound when the<br />
wind blows.<br />
2. You will then make a short video<br />
showing the sun chime in the<br />
school grounds, demonstrating that<br />
it catches the sun and that it makes<br />
a sound in the wind.<br />
Important things you need to do!<br />
• You must work in groups of<br />
2–3 pupils.<br />
• You will need to think about what<br />
materials can be used to catch<br />
sunlight and what materials can be<br />
used to make sound.<br />
• You need to use at least four different 2-D shapes in your<br />
design.<br />
