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.
I learnt that instructions need to have points and verbs
Reflection on PBL:
For our Jolly Jar my group did bookmarks. It was really fun. I think it was the best P.B.L yet!
I contributed to my group by helping to make the instructions and give ideas.
Why did I like it? I really liked it because we could choose what to make.and i like to read and i can never find a bookmark.
Our Jolly Jar was creative because the buyer could make their own
What I learned about working with others was you have got to be patient with everyone
How did we build community through our actions?
We sold our Jolly Jars that we made and design to raise money for a community bike track!
