@EvePollard_ I would use the 'every drop counts being water wise' as it is an activity that gradually teaches the student about water usage, the supply of water and how they can save water through a step by step investigation. Making them aware, whilst developing 21st Century Skills!

@Brook_bailey_98 Yes, education is the key to change! Your point of planting native deep-rooted vegetation is so vital. As it helps to keep the water table low, thus preventing the ground water from reaching the salt layer which will result in contaminated groundwater!

@JuliaCutajar Using PBE to support recycling I would give S a topic list where they select one they are passionate about & create a piece from the topic out of recyclable materials! Giving S a choice in what they want supports their agency and promotes a mastery of higher academic standards!

Harmony Day🧡 This day further encourages educators to learn about their student's culture and to apply this knowledge to create in depth-culturally responsive pedagogy. What activity would you invoke to create belonging and inclusiveness in your class? #SDG15 #UoNTeach #educ4750

A single flying fox can disperse up to 60,000 seeds in one night, making them vital for the survival of our eucalypt and rainforest ecosystems. #communitybasedpedagogy can be used to protect this vital creature through an involved and hands-on way.🌱🌳#SDG15 #educ4750 #UoNTeach

The project-based activity of designing and building a bird feeder follows #SDG15. #commuintybasedpedagogy is fostered by placing these feeders around the community and schools. Activities such as the identification and monitoring of species can also occur.🪺 #UoNTeach #EDUC4750
