Group Review: Cafe Belle

On Wednesday March 7th, the Café Belle group started working together on the Coffee Project.  Café Belle was a name for their product in which Lizzie, Moriah, Delaney, and Aya created.  The group decided to use a poster board and a website to advertise and present their final product.  Lizzie and Aya will be focusing on creating the poster board, while Delaney and Moriah will be concentrating on creating and maintaining the blog.  Moriah and Delaney have created a logo for the group’s product by drawing a symbolic unicorn, scanning it into the computer, and doing some simple editing.  Moriah and Delaney have also picked out a theme for the website and have continued creating it.  While Moriah and Delaney were working on the website, Lizzie and Aya have been busy creating the poster board.  They first cut the poster board in order to give it windows.  Then they cut construction paper carefully placing it on the board giving the poster board a color theme.  Lastly, they put the words “Café Belle” at the top of the poster board so viewers can keep note of their name and product.

Siri- Coffee Design Challenge Progress

            In the coffee design challenge, my group has picked out the type of coffee known as Ethiopian coffee. The group is brewing on a setting of around 18-20. The coffee has a fruitier taste. So far, the group has come up with the name for our group, which is “My Blood Type Is Coffee,” the groups logo is vampire lips with a cup of coffee, and its business catch line is “I’m a sucker for good coffee.” The title and logo were approved and our poster has a basis done. Our jobs are, for the most part, sorted out. That is what this group has done so far. 

Briaunna, Anthony, Jana, and Kimberly's Design Challenge Group

Last week, the design challenge group with Briaunna, Anthony, Jana, and Kimberly started working on the design challenge. They made small progress during their work time. They talked about what they have to bring to the design challenge from each class. Briaunna is in chemistry and in English 10. Anthony is in chemistry and English 9.  Jana is in chemistry and English 9. And Kimberly’s in biology, English 10, and 3D art.

            They also laid out the design for the poster that is going to be used for the coffee fair. Then after they laid out the design for the poster, they showed Mr. Dewitt the poster design. Then, after they grabbed a poster and painted it orange, yellow, and blue. And, that’s all they got to that day.
