Primary 7 at St David’s have been designing their very own eco-classrooms of the future.
In the very beginning, lucky Kaden and Aminta went to Bilston Primary School for the launch of the project. They came back absolutely buzzing about all the opportunities that the project would offer us to change our classroom.
After Kaden and Aminta told us all about it, we were lucky enough to get the chance to choose different learners to work with in cooperative groups. This was far better than Miss O’Brien choosing our groups because it meant that we would get along better and we knew that it was up to us to complete our jobs and responsibilities.
The first thing we did in the project was create a group name (we chose Savage STEM Squad, The Technowizards, Les Petits Einsteins, Super Hero STEM Kids and the Fantastic STEM of Five). Then we created a logo on our ipads or on paper (we got to choose) and used PicCollage to make profiles about each person in our group.
During other lessons, our groups have completed a lot of research and looked at ideas for making our classroom better and more eco-friendly. We shared our eco-ideas and decided on the best ones to use in our eco-classroom model, which we are working on at the moment!
Check back soon to see all of it finished!
Josh, Kaden and Ewan
