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 we decided to spread kindness by making the teachers feel thanked because of all the hard work they do for us so we have chosen to make a kindness gift basket
Reflection:
For our final product: It was fun it and we enjoyed it it was a little bit hard to find out what the teachers liked and what we should put in it but in the end it all came together and our final product was a kindness gift basket.
How did our action build a sense of community in the school: this made community by making the teachers feel like everyone cares about all the hard work they do for us if it wasn't for the teachers we would know nothing we know now.
I contributed by trying to find ideas of what to make and how to make the gift basket. I also helped with the kindness quotes and what to put in the gift basket.
I think the PBL might impact on the teachers by making them feel thanked and happy to be thought about and making the teachers know that we all care even though sometimes we might not show it.
What I learned about working with others was that it was hard but we had to collaborate with others to make it work and turn out the way we wanted to be. I would love to do this again because it was fun to work and get to know new people. I had such a great fun this was a great experience
1. if you got to choose one food that you were given what would it be ?
2. what would you choose to do for your action plan what would you do ?
