Brainstorm with the family about how your chosen topic can be used to design something useful for people.<br \/>\n3. Ask:<br \/>\n&#8211; What animal or nature objects does my topic remind me of?<br \/>\n&#8211; What unique features do these animals\/objects have?<br \/>\n&#8211; How can I use these characteristics to design something useful?<br \/>\n4. Draw your idea on paper and label parts and materials.<br \/>\n5. Post it and admire! Remember, you can always go back to it to make changes to improve the design.<br \/>\n6.
