My super PBL

PBL - Term 1

Hi my name is Dejon and this term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about kindness and the big question was: How can we build community through our actions?

First, we explored some collaborative activities and discussed how we could include kindness and build a sense of community through our actions at camp. Next, we were organised into groups where we had to unpack the above question. In our groups we considered how we could spread community and kindness through our entire school community. We decided that we would offer something that was free and would make others happy

Reflection: we got rocks and painted them and put love hearts on them and then hid them for the whole school and after school the children at St Francis  went to find them. We thought it was a nice idea.

For our final product our group had to hide the rocks for the school students to find.

How did our action build a sense of community in the school? Because the school were having a good time and it was a kind thing to do and it was fun.

I contributed by hiding the rocks for the juniors, I also painted the rocks and worked my team.

I think the PBL might impact on others by making them now that kindness is fun when you show it.

What I learned about working with others is listening to the group because if you do you can get good ideas and you can get lots of work done and it was a good group because we could not paint the rocks at the last second we needed a time ling

Question - so if you were to do something kind for the school what will you do?
