(Hass)

As part of our Year 10 HASS course, we are able to research a project of our own choice and to create a final product to showcase at our final exhibition in Term 4. The topic that we have chosen to research is bath bombs and how we can be environmentally friendly, vegan, and cruelty-free. Currently, we have found our main inquiry question and completed our annotated bibliography research. We have also been doing a lot of research in terms of different types of packaging and styles of bath bombs. Our aim was to be environmentally friendly, and because bath bombs are able to dissolve in water, this was the perfect product to create. Due to society’s demands and standards, environmentally friendly products have been popular, which is why we have ultimately decided to create environmentally friendly bath bombs, which enables us to directly aim these products to our target audience. We have also looked at what a business plan is, which includes costs and other components needed. By the end of Term 3 Week 10, we should have our research, annotated bibliography, and our business plan completed. At the start of Term 4, we have decided to start the creation process and trialing different types of bath bombs.  

The step we have done/completed are:

  1. We got our booklets and decided what we wanted to do with our economic card, while keeping it fun and acceptable.
  2. We wrote up our first page and completed our essential question, research on eco friendly bath bombs
  3. The skill and capabilities that we are going to encounter, while making our company sustainable.
  4. Started on the references while doing our research and looking at companies such as lush, and companies that suggested what ingredients to use and what packaging is eco, vegan and cruelty friendly
  5. Wrote our business plan up, while researching what you need to do and understand about a business and what you need to do to start a business.
  6. We looked at recipes and more sources to have a better understanding on what we wanted to do
  7. We looked at lush reviews and their report card to see what they thrive in and what they don’t thrive in
  8. Looked at graphs to understand what are in the bath bombs themselves and what they need.
  9. Started our time table while still researching what we need (finished our source)
  10. Looked at what roles we wanted to do and what needed to be done
  11. Finishes our 4 reference
  12. Looked at what profit and start up we need to do

  15. Looked at pros and cons about being eco friendly and vegan
  16. Seeing what prices we needed to know, and how to make a sustainable product
  17. Decided to sell tickets for more sales and for more people to be interested.
  18. We looked at ideas for bath bombs
  19. Done research in the demands on bath bombs
  20. Looked at the difference between gender and what they are interested in
