My fourth and fifth grade students will collaborate and innovate solutions to reduce the use of plastic in our communities and schools. We will work on an action project address SDG Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and communities. We will work on reducing the use of plastic bags in stores in our community by learning about what other countries and cities are doing and design a plan to take action to request our city council to address the usage of plastic in our communities and why that is harmful to the environment.
Students in my class are continuing to develop an understanding of what innovation is and why it is important to help us develop tools and ideas to make the world a better place. We made a one word video to describe our thinking.
