@SophiavanCamp2 Would love to use this resource in my special education classroom! Thanks for the share👌🏻

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@ashleeprice912 Love this! It would be great to see similar sharing of culture in a classroom environment 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@ashleeprice912 I agree, it's definitely so important to teach 21st century skills in partnership with cultural diversity as it can lead to worldwide collaboration and the creation of global citizens!

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@ashleysafranko4 @ashleeprice912 I definitely agree with this! Having strong bonds between students allows for a safe and supportive learning environment!

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@ashleysafranko4 @literacytoday Such a great point 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@ashleysafranko4 This is a great idea! I think it would lead to some very meaningful learning.

@TeaganC01 I want to do this in my own garden now! Thank you for sharing such a great resource/project 😁

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

Would definitely recommend this website as a starting point for planning for a unit of work based on sustainability and the local geographical environment! Some excellent resources and ways to foster some of those 21st century skills! #UoNTeach

In reflecting on what I have learnt whilst creating a unit on #sustainability, it has become extremely clear that teaching 21st century skills is essential in order for students to develop a deep understanding of the importance of looking after their local environment #UoNTeach

@ashleeprice912 I'll definitely be checking this out, thanks for sharing!

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@reidem6 I agree, they're definitely all important! Thanks for the response 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

The 6 R's of sustainability are a great way to educate students about minimising pollution and waste. Do you think one 'R' is more important than another? Would you start teaching about one 'R' before others in the classroom? #UoNTeach #PlanetorPlastic ♻️

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@reidem6 This is a really interesting concept! I agree with @laurensteuart that if you were to find a positive it would definitely be the collaboration and 21st century skills you can teach while exploring solutions to these problems with your students.

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@NaomiRodwell @courtneytrudge1 Yeah I agree! Definitely important to hook them in early with some interesting resources to get them engaged 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

Love @courtneytrudge1's idea of using a picture book to introduce a big picture topic to students! This book could be used to introduce the topic of plastic pollution in the ocean - how else could you first introduce this topic to students? #UoNTeach

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@reidem6 The more I learn about plastic waste and how much more we could be doing to minimise its effect, the more I agree that single use plastics should be banned! You could do some great persuasive writing activities with students to explore this issue too 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@TeaganC01 I think it would work really well! So many cross-curricular opportunities. It would definitely help in developing 21st Century skills such as collaboration and critical thinking!

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

How great is this idea! Having a school kitchen garden would not only allow the school community to live a healthier lifestyle, but also enable families to move towards #zerowaste! What are your thoughts on this? #UoNTeach

@TeaganC01 I didn't realise there were 6 either! I do think the additions are very useful 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@kirrabowdler Wow, I never realised the 'green' bags actually weren't that sustainable. Great to know there are better options out there! Thanks for sharing 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

@ashleeprice912 'I'm Australian Too' by Mem Fox is a great starting point i believe 😀

[Grace Fray @GraceFray96]

Would definitely recommend checking this article out! It really helped me reflect on my understanding of the importance of 21st century skills in the effort to create global citizens in our students and a more sustainable future for all. #UoNTeach

@giorgia_uon What a great shot! Would definitely be a good conversation starter in the classroom 😀
