I'm a hawk Uses only materials from Approved Materials List	I'm an eagle Explains how materials used made for a better airplane. What materials were not available but would have helped. How?
Procedures	I'm a hatchling Step-by-step instructions not there, or hard to follow, does not make sense.	I'm a carrier pigeon Step-by-step instructions hard to follow but with effort one can rebuild the design.	I'm a hawk Easy to follow step-by-step instructions, clear description of steps.

Video shows the effort was made even if a few errors in recording or making the plan are observed.	I'm a hawk Colored, good effort put into decorating plane. Team members names included in plans and effort was made in work. Others would be able to watch the video and follow along to successfully make their plane.
