You are a well-known fashion designer in the industry. One day, you met the president of your class way back in the elementary level. She said she was getting married! As she was a big fan of yours, she wanted you to design her gown and all of your classmates’ attire as they were invited as well! You gladly took the offer and went to your office to start your work. As a fashion designer, the first thing to do was to take the measurement of each part of their body. These were the parts that needed measurement:
-
Chest
-
Upper Arm
-
Hips
What tool will you use to measure these parts? There are a lot to pick and you have the freedom to use any of it BUT choose the right tool to measure the circumference of these parts in each of your classmates! Put it on a portfolio and sketch it like a fashion designer you are!
How to sketch your measurement?
Draw your sketch by your own! Draw each part of the body that the measurement is needed. On every measurement that you will get, make sure to label who is the owner of it.
Your portfolio should contain the following:
-
The complete set of measurement of the parts of the body (chest, upper arm and hips) on each of your classmate
-
Your reflection on what have you learned while doing this task.
