This term, our Project Based Learning (PBL) started with us 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. 

Here is a  link to my instructions. \

I learnt that instructions need to be clear because if they are not clear then other people will not be able to read them and follow them. You also need instructions so that people can build or make it. You need to add what you need to make the thing. These are called materials.

Reflection on PBL                   

For our Jolly Jar my group made slime. Our name was Slime Squad. We decorated our jar and they looked cool. 

I contributed to my group by helping with the instructions and by helping them test the the slime and help them put the stuff in the jar that you needed to make slime.

Our Jolly Jar was creative because we put pva glue and pink paper and yellow and glued it onto the jar.

What I learned about working with others was  about good team werk and we collaborated and we  helped each other when they needed help.

How did we build community through our actions? We help the community by raising the money for our  school bike track.
