Jumping jolly jars
This term, our Project Based Learning (PBL) started with the teachers putting us into groups. In these groups we had to work collaboratively to create Jolly Jars for the school fair. This task helped us to begin exploring our PBL question for the term - How can we build community through our actions? We had to research ideas, be creative with our product, experiment with our materials and write instructions that could be followed by others.
Here is a link to my instructions.
I learnt that instructions need to have a material list and you have to make the words clear so the reader can understand .
Reflection on PBL:
For our Jolly Jars my group made stress balls because we thought it would be fun to make.
I contributed to my group by helping and letting everybody share their ideas for our poster and our idea of stress balls.
Our Jolly Jar was creative because we painted it different colours and put glitter on the jolly jar.
What I learned about working with others was you don't always have to work with your friends.
How did we build community through our actions? We raised a lot of money for the bike track.
