Something my class has been working on during our Clean up our Water unit is these recyclable pencil cases. These are a good, easy way to get students to start thinking about recycling plastic bottles, as well as incorporating creative arts #UoNTeach#Educ4750#SDG14
Thanks to @CulleyEliza for sharing this idea of a community clean up. This has inspired myself to organise a clean up day at our local beach near my school. The students are excited to gets hands on with the topic they have been learning about! #SDG14
I wanted to find a way to encourage my students to feel a passion to help and change what is happening to our beaches!
A whole community clean up morning at a local Newcastle beach would be a way to unite together and help! Is this a suitable idea? #UoNTeach#Educ4750#SDG14
I was thinking of getting someone from @Take3fortheSea to come and speak to my classroom about the importance of protecting our life below water!
Do you think that this will be beneficial for my stage 3 class? #UoNTeach#Educ4750#SDG14#LifeBelowWater

@CulleyEliza@Take3fortheSea Looking over their Twitter page and I believe this is a really good resource to also use within this lesson as they discuss major issues around the oceans. They really dive deep into #SDG14
In my classroom, I have used the Back to Blue website to engage and invite my students into some of the pollution issues within our oceans. This links with the #SD14.This website provides a live action background along with video links that are educational!https://t.co/BcIwLMWCsq
@CulleyEliza That a really great idea! I can also have these students really put the test of the products and have them use over a stand of time to determine what product is the best swap for plastic! #SDG14

@LukeUon @CulleyEliza With students bringing their lunch to school everyday, imagine how much single use plastic waste can be avoided by using a eco-friendly product like beeswax alternative! This product really opens the student eyes to small swaps that make a huge difference to the oceans #SDG14

@CulleyEliza Having the students be active in their recycling and understanding how reusing plastic 'waste' in a different perspective is a great classroom arts project. Students are able to really explore their artistic skills while also being aware of how this is making a change #SDG14
