@JessLandrigan Perfect way to sum up this topic. By creating hands on activities for the students they will better understand the context behind sustainable living and be of relevance

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

@NGlohe I completely agree! The new information I now have and can implement into the classroom from other peers is fantastic and will only serve me well in the future

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

@ShannonTwohill @Take3fortheSea Perfect initiative for schools to include in their day to help promote a clean healthy school yard and a sustainable one! UoNTeach

@CabanRory Great way of looking at this topic. We have been given so much through twitter to allow us to learn new information that will help us as educators #UoNTeach

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

By using twitter with other professionals and working towards preparing my unit of work I now understand students need to incorporate the 4 C’s in the future #UONTeach https://t.co/gV7gaIzdQa

@ShannonTwohill Living on the coast makes so much relevance to us as pre service teachers. Very interesting and scary to see whats happening on our door step #UonTeach

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

Twitter is a great tool to use to assist in my profession as an educator and communicate with other students. I have learnt so much about sustainability and will continue using to aid my career #UonTeach

@ShannonTwohill A class excursion to the beach to show the bad affects of polution to our oceans could be a good idea!

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

I completely agree! I can’t believe how many things I have taken away from using twitter than will positively impact me in the future in regards to recycling and reducing plastic use #UonTeach

[Aaron O’Driscoll @Aaron97UON]

Twitter has certainly opened my eyes to the amount of things that can be in our classrooms to promote recycling and reduce the amount of plastic we use. I look forward to implementing these into my future classroom & school settings! #UONTeach #SustainableClassrooms

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

By connecting with other pre service teachers I have been able to discover plentiful amounts of useful resources and information on how to make my classroom #Sustainable and how to act as a good role model for future students #UoNTeach

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

@CabanRory I think we could do things such as wearing board shorts made from plastic as well as contributing to the local community by simply picking hi rubbish on the beach

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

@ShannonTwohill Great idea for students to be thinking about these current issues whilst outside completing hands on tasks to promote sustainability in the school environment!

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

Upon my research on the topic of sustainability I have come to realise that by giving students the opportunity to learn about these issues they will be able to make a change for the better #UoNteach

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

Some great tips and tricks for students to take from this article on reducing our plastic use #UoNteach #Plasticstraws

Living in a town with a coastline of beaches this is a perfect teaching tool to engage students and create a deeper connection to understanding how they can play their part in a sustainable way #UoNteach #Surf

This ‘Seabin’ project is an awesome initiative to help clean up our oceans in certain parts of the world. By reducing plastic waste we are creating a more sustainable living environment #UoNteach #Sustainable #plastic

[Seabin™ @Seabin_project]

Last night while we slept, over 600 Seabins collected a 1/2 ton of marine litter. 💪😜🌏🐟

There is plenty of useful resources for us educators to use when teaching about sustainability and the ways in which students can become involved through ‘Pinterest’. #UoNTeach https://t.co/dTITP0lVvH

A great resource for schools and teachers giving plenty of great tips and ideas to help implement as a class to help waste management #UoNTeach #Sustainability

[Guy Walters @GuyWalters10]

A horrifying visual representation of what our waste is doing to our environment and the ecosystem of many animals #UoNTeach #Waste

The Department of the Environment and Energy has an enormous range of information which can be useful in teaching students about recycling. The info ranges from types of recyclable plastic to policies and strategies to reduce waste. https://t.co/q6IyOk9scw #UoNTeach
