Five Wonders Theme Park: Replace and Upgrade – Project
PDF | 10 pages|Grades: 4 - 6 | Starter SheetA project where students get to decide on a new ride they can design to put into Five Wonders Theme Park.
Welcome to Five Wonders Theme Park, the best theme park in the entire world!
This teaching resource is a part of our Five Wonders Stimulus projects. The aim of this project is for students to study and comprehend the stimulus poster and the information it includes. Then they need to infer which ride would be the least successful in the park and research and design a more-popular replacement. Students will need to craft a persuasive piece, including an illustration of their proposed theme park ride or attraction, and explain how it will be more successful than the previous ride or attraction it will replace.
Students will need to use their skills in:
- comprehension and inferring from a given stimulus
- persuasive writing, to persuade theme park management to approve their idea
- designing and drawing, to create a full-colour model of their ride to include in their persuasive letter/speech.
