Project Based Learning

We have named our group "My name's not Rick!" our group includes Kim, Alazae, Joseph and I. The topic we have decided to focus on is river cleaning/pollution as a lot of the rivers around Canterbury are polluted due to our agriculture, litter, etc. The impact that we wish to have on our community is promoting the awareness of this subject and going and physically cleaning rivers to help our environment.

Social Science - Haiti Earthquake

For social science we are doing a study in groups of different natural disasters our group chose the Haiti earthquake. Our group originally consisted of Kim, Alazae, and I but we now it consists of Kim, Alazae, Anzac, and I.

For the first lesson we decided what natural disaster we were going to do and then began to research about it.
In the second and third period we continued to research about the earthquake and found clips and pictures from the Haiti earthquake

For the past few lessons we have been researching the social, environmental, economical, effects of the Haiti earthquake. We also researched how earthquakes are made. We wrote paragraphs on each of these.
