Hair's Your Gift
Labelling the final product.
Washing the hair.
Measuring the tensile strength.
Gateways
Gateways are always formative. Gateways enable the student to reach the end point but they are not the end point. The teacher still has to complete a final holistic assessment on the students' application of the knowledge and skill gained during the process.
There maybe negotiated gateways with individual students or groups of students or unexpected gateways where the unit develops along different lines to the original planned unit. The teacher will note these in the overall comment.
Gateway Two – Skills Gateway
Objectives Learning Outcomes
Students can follow and modify formulae for making a variety of hair care products according to a perceived need or opportunity.
Specific Learning Outcome
Follow and modify formulae for making hair wax, hair gel, shampoo and conditioner according to a perceived need or opportunity.
Assessment Strategy
Teacher questioning, observation of experimental method, pupil log and final product.
Criteria
The oil phase and water phase are prepared seperately
The oil and water phase are heated seperately
Adding the different solutions
