Hints and Tips For a Litterless Lunch Box

WALT: find alternatives to waste in our lunch boxes
I enjoyed learning heaps of different ways to reduce the rubbish in my lunch box. I thought that thinking of the ways to reduce rubbish was challenging. Now I will try to stop buying bars in plastic I challenge you to stop buying one of the things in your lunch that has plastic on it.

My Maps

We learned how to use Google MyMaps and then we got to look closely at our own environment and locate landmarks. For each landmark we found we had to name it, write something about it and find an image of it so that the pin on our map had information on it. This is my finished map of Wellington. Have you ever used MyMaps to locate places in your community?

Our composting experiment #1

WALT: Write a science experiment using google drawings.
I enjoyed designing a Google drawing. I thought that thinking about how to write the information was challenging. To be better I could put some more detail in. 

music

WALT: describe our emotions while we were at camp.
We made this music to describe how we felt at camp during all of the different activities we did. This is my music from camp and it is all very different and upbeat because the camp activities were all adventures.

Creating music at capital E

While we were on camp we went to capital E and while we were there we made a one-minute long segment of music using different sounds and loops. I enjoyed fading the sounds and finding the different sounds that went together. I thought that trying to find sounds that worked together was difficult and fun because there were so many sounds but it helped that they were in categories.

WALT: To share Paroa Schools current composting area
We made a video to show the schools composting situation and what we could do to make it better. I enjoyed talking about the compost and how much rubbish was in the composting areas. I thought that filming the video was challenging because we had to film it on our Chromebooks.

To be better than before we could say more about what we could do to make it a better compost system.
