AMAZING! Thank you @TownsPhoebe for sharing. To think how many of these bottle caps could have ended up in our waterways...
I think this is an amazing visual representation to show our students of see the difference that we can be making

Love this idea @MorgynFrench! A great way to show students how we can repurpose old materials to create new things while getting creative! #UoNTeach

It is so important to treat others the way you would like to be treated, and necessary for teachers to portray this message to their students. Everyone deserves a friend and deserves to be loved. We all need to care for the well being of ourselves and others #SDG3 #love #UoNTeach

[Beth Frates MD @BethFratesMD]

We all have a deep desire for high quality connections where we are loved and understood.

I couldn't agree more! It's important that we teach our students what it means to be nice and how it affects others. Our behaviour towards others has a great impact! #friendships #SDG3 #UoNTeach

Within Australia, 20% of students under the age of 18 reported to be bullied frequently. We need to focus on loving and supporting everyone! We need to keep in mind that people are facing challenges we know nothing about. #SDG3 #Letslove #UoNTeach https://t.co/fjhG9XPwqF

Isn’t it amazing how a giraffe can assist children to learn about their health! A fun way for students to learn the importance of health and looking after themselves. #SDG3 #UoNTeach https://t.co/URsmvO82lN

Starting a school veggie garden helps create engaging spaces for students. Students learn where their food comes from, giving them a reason to care for the environment and an opportunity to show initiative! Definitely worth a read! #UoNTeach #sustainable https://t.co/ScdhibQUMI

A great use for something that is usually deemed as '#rubbish'. As a class, we could find possible uses for 'rubbish' within our classrooms! Schools could have a challenge between classes who can find the most possibilities for reuses #sustainablefutures #UoNTeach

Basil in a UHT milk pot. Rethink, reuse and recycle. #Sustainability

Educating our students about #handwashing is important now more than ever! A small task as simple as hand washing can prevent the spread of germs and keep our peers healthy! #SDG3 #UoNTeach

Thanks to 'Clean Up Australia' our environments have less rubbish. An excellent opportunity for schools to assist with cleaning up our communities. Schools could be doing this more regularly, and every Friday lunch have 5 minutes of school yard cleanup! #sustainability #UoNTeach

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

Do you think schools should be plastic free and ban plastic bags? Students can brainstorm ways that their school can eliminate the uses of plastic and possible substitutions. A good place to start is the canteen! Do you have any suggestions? #sustainableliving #UoNTeach #EDUC4750

[Steven Cotterill @socialiststeve6]

#PlasticBagBan Because we can see the difference, they can't.

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

A short clip to show in the classroom! Ask your students, "are your choices creating a #sustainable future?" Discuss the impact our choices have on the environment and brainstorm ways that we can make a difference #UoNTeach

[Janmejay @janmejay4150]

#sustainability is all about making the right choices.

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

A study by Mathew White found "people who spent 2 hours a week in green spaces were more likely to report good health and psychological wellbeing than those who don't" (Robbins, 2020). Whether it be a PE or art lesson, it's essential students are spending time outdoors #UoNTeach

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

Students can be encouraged to be involved in #SustainableLiving through the involvement of a school compost and vegetable garden! This book can students learn to grow and maintain a veggie garden. This is a great way for students to take initiative within the school! #UoNTeach

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

What a great way to reuse products! An excellent opportunity for a science task within the classroom assessing students on their ability to build and reuse materials based on their properties! #sustainableliving #UoNTeach #EDUC4750

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

Friendships are not limited to age, gender or race. We can all be friends and should always be nice to everyone! A great trait for someone to have is loving and accepting all. #LetsLove #SDG3 #UoNTeach #EDUC4750

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

This helps to show students the consequences of their actions. Schools should make it a focus to limit unnecessary plastic use. A great place to start is the school canteen! Stop the use of plastic straws and single use plastic utensils #sustainableliving #UoNTeach #EDUC4750

[The Happy Turtle @happyturtle_ind]

This quote will never be over used until people realize that every piece of plastic makes a difference. .
Make a personal commitment to say "no" to plastic straws. Whenever you order a drink, politely request “no straw, please.” Encourage your friends and family to do the same!

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, families are being encouraged to keep their children at home and undertake online learning. As teachers, we also need to consider their wellbeing. Below are some activity ideas away from screens and technology. #SDG3 #UoNTeach #EDUC4750

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

A great classroom resource! I will definitely be using this to educate students about their body, correct hygiene and how to keep clean. A funny, interactive and educational resource #SDG3 #UoNTeach #EDUC4750

[Abbey Dean @AbbeyDean6]

Tomorrow's the International Day of Happiness! It's an important for teachers to ensure their students are safe and happy young people. We all deserve to be apart of happy and healthy relationships and should be educating our students about this! #LetsLove #UoNTeach

[Jeremy M. Burke @JeremyMBurke1]

With many schools closed during this quarantine period, nows a good time to work with your child that’s being bullied. Talk with them and find out how they’re being bullied. And use this time to teach them to stand up for themselves.

#sustainableliving should be a focus of the 21st century classroom ensuring students know the impact their choices have on our community and the health of our environment. Do you think schools are doing enough to teach students about the impact they have on our environments?
