@miss_barnes11 It's so easy in the technologically savvy world that we live in to educate students about the world around them. Developing open minded learners who are interested and curious of the world around them.

Mansilla and Jackson state the importance of teaching global competence. Children become aware, curious and interested in the world therefore able to address various SDGS resulting in a healthier future for all. #UONTEACH #EDUC4750 asiasociety.org/files/book-glo…

@miss_barnes11 It's also so important to teach students what happens to waste after it goes in the bin. It doesn't just miraculously vanish, there is a whole process and most will sit in landfill for a lifetime or two.
English
Waste is such an important issue for our planet and being educated on the types of waste is essential. I completely agree all aspects of waste need to be addressed in schools to educate the younger generation. #UonTeach #EDUC4750 #SDG12
Amber Franks@AmberLeeFranks
When developing a unit plan on #sustainability it is important to consider all aspects of #waste including #medicalwaste #foodwaste and #ewaste to provide students with the chance to show interest and direction in the classroom #SDG12 what would your #wastefocus be?
English
@miss_barnes11 I was reading that the wrappers on Easter eggs are recyclable if they are formed into a large ball. I wasn't aware of this. An eco-friendly tip would be to put up signs in shopping centres so people are aware. Even have donation bins for people to recycle their egg wrappers.
English
Remember to save plastic Easter eggs for next year or donate them instead of them going to landfill. Quote this tweet if you have any innovative ideas on how you could reuse these at home? #SDG12 #UONTEACH #EDUC4750
CalRecycle@CalRecycle
After the Easter egg hunt, make sure not to throw away those plastic Easter eggs. Reuse them for next year or donate them. Do you have any eco-friendly tips for celebrating Easter? If you do, share your ideas, pics, or video and use the hashtag #HowISaveThePlanet.
English
@miss_barnes11 I agree, they can be very effective if done right. Education on a mass level.
English
@DeavesMrs Thankyou for sharing @DeavesMrs. This is a great way to start meaningful conversations about our vegetable intake. In my opinion I really do believe these type of campaigns can be very effective.
English
A great idea to get everyday people thinking about their veggie intake and perhaps making a change for the better. But, how effective do we think campaigns like this actually are in getting people to eat healthier? #Educ4750 #UoNTeach #SDG3
Nutrition Australia@NutritionAust
Congrats to @OMA_Australia and @healthgovau on a great campaign 👏 We've loved supporting such an important campaign and will continue to work towards increasing Australians' vegetable intake! #AddVeggies #ExtraVeggies
English
@miss_barnes11 We are very fortunate that this is something we don't really have to think about. I think that makes it even more important to educate students about other countries as many wouldn't be aware of this.
English
@DeavesMrs Access to clean water is such a necessity we take for granted here in Australia. I am so grateful for tests like this to be conducted to ensure children are drinking safe clean water.
English
Water is essential for children's wellbeing and good health. It's important to teach children to make healthy drink choices as well as the health benefits that comes from drinking enough water everyday. #Educ4750 #UoNTeach #SDG3
North Marin Water District@NorthMarinWater
On #NationalChildHealthDay, we recognize how important clean, safe drinking water is for keeping children healthy. Our Water Quality group performs thousands of tests each year to ensure our community has access to clean, safe water every day. #water #drinkingwater #healthykids

@Miss_KWoods @sustainable @OzHarvest Great ideas. Businesses could also look at buying produce etc locally to support other local businesses.
English
@DeavesMrs Some ways cafes can make the swap and be @sustainable could be using no single-use plastics, only using reusable coffee cups and engage with groups such as @OzHarvest to minimise food wastage 🥦🌎🥕
What do you think?
English
Every Australian can make a difference. What are some ways that local Australian businesses can contribute to sustainability? #Educ4750 #UoNTeach
GG Enviro@GGEnviro
At Glowing Green Australia, we believe it is important to support local #sustainability initiatives and to help drive #environmental education through sustainable partnerships. Check out our latest article below 👇 ♻️ glowinggreen.com.au/5189-2/

@Miss_KWoods I think that would be a great class concept. Imagine how excited students would be to make something at home when they are staring in the recipe video.
English
@DeavesMrs What a great concept! Another idea would be allowing the students to cook and film the video for their parents and carers. This allows the students to be excited about what they are cooking and eating. To incorporate #SDG12 they could cook using their produce from a vege garden.
English
What a great idea, to provide simple healthy recipe videos. Teaching families how to cook nutritious meals that they may not have attempted otherwise. #Educ4750 #uonteach #SDG3
Bishop Chadwick Catholic Education Trust@bccet
Healthy eating is a priority for us & pupils often tell us how much they love our school dinners, so some of our chefs have created simple cookery videos you can follow at home! See: bccet.org.uk/chadwicks-heal… and show us your efforts using the hashtag #Chadwickkitchen 🥕🥦🫕🌮🍝🍽️
English
@_danielleryner Exactly. I think a lot of the time parents aren't aware of their children should be eating and how important healthy family dinners are to children's wellbeing. Education is key.
English
@DeavesMrs I think this article highlights the importance of parents/careers being educated too! As they are quiet literally the most influential people for our students lives.
English
What an interesting article, highlighting the importance of family dinners and the impact they can have on children's healthy eating patterns. #EDUC4750 #UoNTeach #SDG3

@Thomson_Teaches Growing produce that can be used in the canteen could be a great way to integrate this learning.
English
@DeavesMrs So pleased to hear these guidelines are adhered to however, to enhance these heathly food opportunities, S could engage in #SDG learning about nutrition and reducing food waste through class activities & #PBL growing produce.
English
The NSW Government has healthy eating guidelines that school canteens must adhere to regarding increasing access to healthier food and drink options. What a great way to increase students opportunities to make healthy food choices. #Educ4750 #UoNTeach

English
@_danielleryner Exactly. I also think it's important to teach students different aspects of sustainability. It's not just about the environment but at a basic level of whether or not something is sustainable long term.
English
@DeavesMrs Relating this concept to livestock I think would make students so much more engaged! Not to mention possibly linking what is being taught to their own real lives, as most students would own some type of pet. #UoNTeach
English
Dairy farmers Australia has a sustainability framework with set targets to be reached by 2030. These targets look at the sustainability of livestock and the environment as well as the economic viability of farmers. Sustainable futures. #EDUC4750 #UoNTeach sustainabledairyoz.com.au
English
@GraceMa79653969 Do you think they weren't met because targets set are unattainable? Should they look at making targets more realistic?
English
@GraceMa79653969 You're right, mining's contribution to climate change is complex. So many people pass judgement without fully understanding the issue.
English
The controversial topic of mining and how it contributes to climate change is complex. This resource addresses many aspects of mining such as planning, regulations, community engagement, and rehabilitation. What is your opinion on mining? #SDG13 #EDUC4750

English
@GraceMa79653969 Very interesting. Do you think the worlds booming population is a contributing factor?
English
This is a great depiction of how the Earth has been compromised over the decades due to climate change and how conditions will continue to worsen through severe climate events. This directly links to the NSW K-6 science syllabus- Earth and Space! #SDG13 #EDUC4750 #UoNTeach
World Bank Group Climate and Environment@WBG_ClimateEnv
#ClimateChange threatens to erode progress in nearly every area of human development. And by 2050 it could force more than 140 million people to migrate within national borders in order to avoid its worst effects. More on #SDG13 in the latest #SDGAtlas: wrld.bg/1Jim50Ei1aA
English
@GraceMa79653969 Some great ideas. Composting is one that could be easily set up in schools for all organic waste. Reducing the amount going to landfill as well as educating students.
English
WWF website offers many strategies that anyone can incorporate into everyday life to take action against climate change. This is an important and achieveable foundation to build for students and the local community. #SDG13 #EDUC4750 #UoNTeach

@Miss_KWoods Excursions are great as it's so important for students to have real life experiences of what they are learning.
English
Great find Alex! I think excursions are great as they enable our students to explore and enrich their learning in a non-school environment. I will be using this resource in the development for #SDG12. How else could you use this resource for your SDG? #UoNteach #Educ4750
Alex Kennedy@AlexKen60209635
Check out City of Newcastle's website! Newcastles Waste Education Team offers local school excursions, plenty of teaching resources and even school talks. I will be using this when addressing #SDG12. What resources do you recommend? #Uonteach #Educ4750 newcastle.nsw.gov.au/living/waste-a…
English
@Miss_KWoods Very interesting. I like that they are not just planting trees for the sake of it but planting ones that will help to make their land more fertile and conserve the environment.
English
This is such a great initiative to re-purpose and teach responsible consumption and production.
#UoNTeach #STG12 #Educ4750
World Vision Kenya@WorldVisionKE
We are empowering children, families and communities to raise a wide variety of healthy seedlings in nursery beds. Through this, they are able to plant quality trees that conserve the environment and make their land fertile. #LivesCanChangeForGood #SDG12
English
@Thomson_Teaches A good point. To be quite honest that is one that I don't know a lot about. I will have to do some more research.
English
@DeavesMrs I think that Real-World Problem-Solving & Innovation is the most important as it is a thinking-based skill that is relevant to all aspects of life now & in the future. Problem-solving is needed everyday and learning how to innovate can extend on that PS.
English
@Thomson_Teaches @BrittHunt Or even donating the produce to the school canteen so students can eat what they grow.
English
Another way to reduce pollution and reuse plastics in addressing #sdg12 #sdg14 - this would be an excellent idea for a space-saving classroom garden. I love @BrittHunt s idea of family involvement in a school based project, especially if the community gets the produce.
#educ4750
Brittany Hunt@BrittHunt
PLASTIC BOTTLE RECYCLING A vertical garden is low budget and sustainable! Students and families can get involved by donating used bottles to transform them into a garden within school. This directly corresponds with #SDG14 to reduce marine pollution from land-activity #Educ4750
English
@Thomson_Teaches I didn't know that. So many Easter egg wrappers around my house that I can now recycle. Do you think supermarkets should advertise this better when selling eggs to get the word out to the community?
English
A timely reminder of how to address #sdg12 when celebrating at home or in the classroom for #Easter.
#Recycle #recyclefoil
Planet Ark@PlanetArk
Wondering if you can #recycle all that #Easter egg foil? Scrunch it into a big ball first! ow.ly/ZSiTT
English
@Thomson_Teaches Setting up a composting system and/or a worm farm is a great initiative for schools. It's so important that students understand that once something goes into a bin it doesn't just disappear.
English
I love the incentive to #reduce and #repurposefood waste after #CrunchandSip. Although it’s not form our area, I have attached a PDF that details how to set up a school #composting system & #wormfarming program & involve S in the learning/responsibility related to it & #sdg12.
Katelyn Woods@Miss_KWoods
#CrunchandSip is a great way to allow our students to focus on getting their 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day. Why not share the benefits of composting their food scraps whilst they are eating? #SDG12 #UoNteach #Educ4750
