Week 7 Blog

           Its finally the wrap up week of everyone's projects! Everyone has come to their final conclusion on how they helped the world be a better place. Our project ended up going really AMAZING! Mostly everything that we did went exactly how we planned it would. The only one thing that did not go good, was our paper drive that happened on a rainy day. All the ideas that we had, ended up teaching the school about recycling. Hopefully, they will all put it to action out of this project.  I think that in the end, picking this idea for a project was a fantastic idea.


           On Wednesday, we had our lessons with the third graders; it was a blast. All of the kids loved the idea and had a lot of fun. In the beginning of the class, we gave them lessons. It told them about recycling facts and we also asked them questions to interact with them. They really learned a lot from a 5 minute slideshow shown to them. From that, we learned that kids need something to look at that isn't boring for them to be interested. In the craft that they made, they got to decorate the wings and the body how they wanted. All of them ended up turning out really cool. 


           For this project, in two weeks, everyone will behaving their "final exams". All the groups need to create a slideshow explaining what they have done. This will also require a 10 minute presentation to the class. All of the people in the group will have to talk and it is worth 200 points! For ours, we already have it over half way done. It includes pictures of what we have done and also explanations of mostly everything that we have done. In the end, everything should end up really good and we should get a good grade on it.

  1. I feel like everything went well also. Our goal is finally complete of inspiring the next generation to recycle. It was a little difficult to communicate with the third graders, but we did it.
