@PhoebeM698 This would be great for project based learning in raising more awareness in #recycling and initiating it with a whole school approach. This instigates a positive outcome for students as we can implement this into units to gain knowledge on #sustainability issues. #reuse

@PhoebeM698 Plastic wrap is a key environmental issue when we link it to our children’s lunches. It is affordable and easy to use but is disposed after a single use. @WWF notes that at current production rates there will be 12m tonnes of plastic in our landfill and environment by 2050.

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

@PhoebeM698 I do think that an investigative unit project on sustainable futures which can allow students to use their research and inquiry skills. This will support their learning on future living and identifying these key issues to their parents would be the right direction.

@PlasticFreeJuly is only a couple months away! Jump on this great initiative to implement in our schools in helping our community #reduce our single use plastic usage and living a little “greener” #UoNTeach #sustainability

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

@PhoebeM698 Number 4 is a key issue within schools currently and something a lot of teachers are advocating to change from single use plastics. @kurt_lomas tweeted a resource about single use plastics which highlighted students making their own bags to tackle this issue!

Lithium-ion batteries are major in our electronic devices such as phones, laptops and desktops. Effective #recycling can #reduce the carbon footprint of their production immensely. #UoNTeach #sustainability

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

@CarlieSjostedt A helpful reminder and indicator for students to think of how they can help shape their future in a simple and more positive manner! Looking at providing ourselves with a more #sustainable future as well!

Looking for a way to #reduce your single use plastic in the classroom? Incorporate interactive content into your curriculum that analyses the major issues of recycling. Check out this resourceful toolkit for ideas! #UoNTeach #sustainability https://t.co/ANr8CmxQID

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

@kurt_lomas These look like some great resources to use for the class! What KLAs do you think I could integrate this into for lessons to raise awareness of recycling?

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

@NIEHS have a range of useful resources for students to engage them in learning all about waste management and constructing an understanding of being able to #reduce #reuse #recycle. What else can we do to support students understanding? #UoNTeach

Incorporating @KialoEdu into classroom discussions can be a useful tool to spark critical and creative thinking amongst students regarding #sustainability and everything related to #recycling. More students can have a say on ways of reducing our ecological footprint #UoNTeach

@kurt_lomas Looks really helpful to have your students using their cognitive thinking skills to further enhance their understanding of what they know about waste and alternative ways to #reduce and #reuse waste products! @joel_newman97 @PhoebeM698 @Jpod91

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

@kurt_lomas @Rachelnewman_ @joel_newman97 @GoodacreCooper That’s great! If more schools could follow in the footsteps of Ashburton Drive Primary School this would massively #reduce the ecological footprint in all of our local environments!

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

Interesting guide for students to be taught to #reduce and #reuse recycled materials by integrating this into Creative Arts cross-curricula lessons to raise awareness of the importance of recycling. #UoNTeach

#Sustainability is a cross-curriculum priority assisting students to develop knowledge, skills and values in all disciplines, and to teach students of more sustainable patterns of living. #UoNTeach

@joelnew81088261 @yearoftheplanet Looks like a practical approach to engage students in thinking about the big picture within society and making our world more sustainable to live in, by showing them if everyone makes a small change it can have a big impact on our ecosystem! @joelnew81088261 #sustainability

[JoshSims789 @sims789]

The Sustainable Schools Initiative supports teachers in developing programs that's interactive between schools and community by promoting problem solving and critical thinking skills. Could this be integrated into our Australian curriculum? #sustainability

@PhoebeM698 This is a useful guide for students and parents to implement within schools on ways to #reduce single use waste and facilitating the utilisation of reusable products to bring into schools!
