My Project

With Spring upon us, students are excited to be outside and enjoy their neighborhood and parks again. With that, we have begun to increase students' awareness about community service projects in our neighborhood. After discussion with students, we have decided to embark on a learning journey where we intend to explore recycling in the community. I would like students to gain more knowledge about their personal impact on how recycling can help keep our neighborhood clean and green.

I would like to use the iPad in our classroom research by making technology available for students to look up information, responsibly share information on social media platforms, and create signs for our school community and neighborhood.

I intend to use the case and screen protector to ensure the tech stays protected from our busy hands and regular use. I intend to have students use the stylus as a means to focus their creative energy to create signs and other visually stimulating art pieces reflecting the recycling process. I plan to engage students using the iPad to learn more about how to sort our garbage, reduce, reuse, and recycle. I plan to involve school and community members to raise awareness by providing them with signs and posters designed by our students. It is my hope that the materials created will be used for a long time to inform our students and community members about the importance of recycling and how their involvement will help maintain a clean and healthy community.

I hope to empower our students and community members by educating and involving them as we explore our role in recycling. We are VERY excited to get out there and and share what we learn and create!
