Catch the jar.

This term, our Project Based Learning (PBL) started with the teachers putting us into groups. In these groups we had to work collaboratively to 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.

Here is a link to my instructions.

I learnt that instructions need to start with telling you the materials then you need need to make the instructions step by step.


Reflection on PBL:
For our Jolly Jar group we made bookmarks and someone eventually bought my two jolly jars.

I contributed to my group by bringing some paper in.

Our Jolly Jar was creative because our group painted our jolly jars.

What I learned about working with others was I would rather work with others.

How did we build community through our actions?We worked together to raise money for our bike track and fair.
