Over Consumption Project Update!

We are officially done our over consumption project!!

In this project, I demonstrated communication skills by talking to my group and making sure we know what to do, and when we presented to another group. Something creative I did in this project is making the back ground and grass which had a river and flowers. A problem I ended up solving was how to do my graph for my countries. I only chose 1 country instead of all of them. Something I did that shows social responsibility was making sure I was fully prepared to work on this project and that I had all my materials that I needed. I showed social responsibility by making sure everyone had a job to do, and if they didn't, I found another part they could work on.  I enjoyed this project because I got to learn about how many trees people over consume in a certain amount of time and I got to use clay to build the models so we used little paper.

Over Consumption Project

Hey guys. So for the past couple of weeks, we have been working on our over consumption projects. In order to actually do the project, we had to research a topic that we wanted to find out how much of it we over consume in a certain amount of time. Then we had to write all the numbers in out tables, make graphs and now we built our models to show what we researched!! This coming week, we have to bring it home to show our parents and they get to mark it, and how well we present why we chose it and how else could we graph it. For my groups project, we chose over consumption on trees (paper). Our model was a clay tree that was half way cut down to show that it was about to be used for things that we don't need or already have enough of.. I will put a picture up of our model ASAP!! But for now, here's a sample of our work..

What are the cross curricular competencies are any why they are important?

• Cross curricular competencies are our rubrics that we mark what we think we are for each category. They are : 

• Communication

• Critical Thinking

• Creativity

• Personal Responsibility

• Social Responsibility

Cross curricular competencies are important because we can mark how we think we are doing and then our teachers can see what we put and either agree or disagree and this way we both can come up with our overall mark.
