Jolly jars🐱🐱

This term, our Project Based Learning started with the teachers having to form groups and collaboratively 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. My group made snow globes for are PBL.

Here is a link  to my instructions.

I learnt that instructions need to be clear and  make sense. They need a title materials and steps to follow.

Reflection on PBL:

For our Jolly Jar my group made snow globes.

I contributed to my group by bringing materials and I decorated the jar. I helped with making the instructions and listened to ideas.

What I learned about working with others was that all of us are different at doing different things.

How did we build community through our actions by raising money to finish the bike track.
