Recycling in China

In reading this term our focus has been looking at articles around Climate Change. We have been trying to find what the main idea was and why it was important.

Here are my ideas:

Lots of countries are sending their rubbish to China, in 2018 China decided to change what rubbish they would accept. Companies didn't want the trash to go around the world and it costs a lot of money to recycle.

I have created a Climate Change Strike Poster:

Why should the waste go around the world?

Kindness games.

PBL - Term 1

This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about kindness and the big question was: How can we build community through our actions?

First, we explored some collaborative activities and discussed how we could include kindness and build a sense of community through our actions at camp. Next, we were organised into groups where we had to unpack the above question. In our groups we considered how we could spread community and kindness through our entire school community. We decided that we would offer something that was free and would make others happy.

We created an action plan and our group talked about different ideas, the girls decided to do something different and the boys and I decided to do games.


Reflection:
For our final product our group took out 20 Paiaka students out for multisport.

I contributed by helping the rest of my team.

I think the PBL might impact on others by making them happy and they are going to feel included.

What I learned about working with others was it can be a little bit difficult because they sometimes don't always listen. Next time I would do a bit more and say my ideas.
