The next week we looked at a Wallace and Gromit episode about the Snowmanatron. The Snowmanatron is a vehicle like a snow plow that scoops up snow and produces a snow man. We watched through the video a couple times and then we got asked to draw a labeled diagram of the Snowmanatron. Once I had finished drawing the diagram I began to write down what each lever and bolt was on the Snowmanatron and what it was used for. I have to admit that my drawing wasn't the best drawing ever and my diagram wasn't the best diagram ever but I was pretty proud of my self.
Then we got into writing. First we wrote steps on what to do and how to make it work. Then we brainstormed what we would say in our explanation text. I took a long time to do my brainstorm and diagram because I wanted to make sure that everything as accurate as possible for my explanation writing on the Snowmanatron. We only just started writing our explanation text so all of my writing group are only on our introduction. I want to make this writing the best I have done.
Here is my labeled diagram of the Snowmanatron:
