Slime masters

This term, our Project Based Learning (PBL) started with the teachers putting us into groups. We had to 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 precise and clear and not have to difficult wording because little kids might want to buy your product.

Reflection on PBL:
For our Jolly Jars my group made slime. We made this because everyone likes slime and the theme that I did was Birthday cake.My slime was purple and had gold glitter in it. 

I contributed to my group by bringing the glue and activator for my group.I contributed ideas.My Ideas were piggy banks and card making.

Our Jolly Jar was creative because we designed some cool jars with tissue paper and sparkles.On the jars we had little tags saying the price which was $5.

What I learned about working with others was we all don’t think the same and have the same ideas and also you need to work together and co-operate and compromise.

How did we build community through our actions by helping fund raise for the school.
