It may be useful to have a lawyer on hand during the demonstrations.Artist Bruce McCall paints images of ' Retro Futurism ,' with a tongue-in-cheek humorous approach. Then, they could use the models to do small demonstrations of how their invention will work. If you’re really ambitious and have the time and materials, they could build small models of their invention.Have the audience members press the presenter with questions to clarify how his/her invention will be built and how it would work. The students could either write about their invention and accompany with a picture, or they could just draw it and you turn it into an oral language activity.For example, a human cannon should have a large landing pad (that sort of thing to force them to think through their invention a little more thoroughly.) Also, each invention should have safety considerations. You could challenge them to come up with the ultimate playground inventions to make their school yard far more interesting to play in. Now, ask them to draw up the blueprints for their own Marveltown invention which would make their town or city way more fun to live in.
Why was it their favourite? Was it useful or for the all important purposes of fun?
After reading the story, you can do two things: First, ask them which of the inventions was their favourite.You might have other ideas, so go ahead and use them. This is such a visually stunning book that I think engagement will be pretty much instantaneous without any great buildup.
Using Marveltown by Bruce McCall (ISBN 9780374399252) None of these are necessities, yet, they are such GREAT IDEAS! The advancement of our great civilization depends upon them! This activity will be inspired by the father of invention. But who is invention’s father? Maybe the father of invention inspired such creations as the Patty-stacker, the Slap Chop, or the Flow-bee (a personal haircutting device).
