@MissRLittle The impacts of fast fashion is such an important one. So many schools no longer have a second hand uniform shop. This could be an interesting way to address this issue in the school community.

Terrifying article on the impacts of fast fashion and clothing manufacturer Shein. CAn link to our global values and what we deem ethical consumption. #Uonteach #SDG12 abc.net.au/news/2022-04-0…

@MissRLittle This is such an interesting stat!! I agree that we need to reduce paper use in classrooms. I would also love to see a reduction in laminating in classrooms too.
English
One way I've found we can reduce paper use is through using individual whiteboards! Such a great tool to giving students timely feedback too! #educ4750 #UoNteach #SDG12

A typical school uses 360,000 sheets of paper in a school year! We as educators must set a good example when it comes to #SDG12. Reducing the amount of unnecessary printing is a great start. #UoNTeach #educ4750

@Tonims85 A fantastic idea Toni, thank you for sharing this one! Will definitely be getting our seeds from the Newcastle Seed Library for my Unit of Work. #newcastleseedlibrary
English
@Tonims85 Absolutely, this is a wonderful way to integrate the traditional people of the land and into the schooling environment. Are you inviting the Awabakal Land Council into your unit of work?

It is so important to include Indigenous perspectives and knowledge in all areas of our curriculum. We can ensure we are getting genuine resources by utilising our local aecg. This is an example of one of their great resources. #SDG11 #EDUC4750 #UoNTeach

@Tonims85 No worries Toni! So glad this resource could assist you! Were you focusing on an SDG goal of your own? If so, what are your targets?
English
The Sustainable Schools NSW website is a great resource for anyone interested in sustainability! Whether you’re a teacher, student or parent sustainableschoolsnsw.org.au #educ4750 #UoNTeach

@jasminebloorr Bunnings are a great community resource. So much knowledge and they are willing to help with so many worthwhile community programs. I am also incorporating them into my unit-plan of establishing a seed library.

@MissNelson98 Worm Farms and composting are all great ways for students to contribute to environmental sustainability and learning about these things are great life skills that they can hopefully continue into the future.
English
Thanks for sharing! Worm farms are a great way to support #sdg12 in schools by organically recycling food scraps. Check out the Central Coast Council, as they offer free Green Living workshops & worm farm guides like the one below! #UoNTeach #educ4750

Students learn how they can contribute to a healthy planet by recycling scraps in a worm farm. Do you think learning this skill early will help continue responsible recycling habits into adulthood? agandstem.com/worm-farm-enga… #EDUC4750 #UoNTeach #SDG12

@_elisethumath Community and school vegetable gardens are such a great way to contribute to environmental sustainability but also a practical solution to the growing pressures of the cost of living and food costs.
English
@MissNelson98 @kab_nsw What a great community asset!. Not only would the students learn so much, they look like so much fun!!
English
There are some incredible workshops @kab_nsw where schools work with the local community to become #EnviroMentors. They support #sdg12 through hands on learning activities such as worm farming, school waste audits & a schoolyard harvest #UoNTeach #educ4750

@jasminebloorr Such a great idea to incorporate the 8 ways of learning framework into your lesson plan. When students develop a sense of belonging the are more likely to feel a sense of ownership and responsibility for our environment and planet.
English
@BenjaminCollet7 What a great way to embed indigenous perspectives in a school but also build a genuine sense of community amongst the school@community. Thanks for sharing this.
English
@JamesHow92 This tweet is great not only for ideas but also to demonstrate how easy it can be to intergrate SDGs into other KLAs.
English
@JamesHow92 This is a great community asset . Incorporating Local knowledge and content into lessons helps to engage the students and make the content more relevant to their lives outside of the classroom.
English
@JamesHow92 @YouTube This is a great way to introduce such a large topic to students.
English
@Georgialoads This would be a great graphic to use when introducing the idea of sustainability to students. It really sums uo the ideas in a colourful and visual way.
English
@Emilyosheaeduc My Unit will culminate in the students establishing a school seed library and resources to go with each different variety of seed. This will allow for the school, school community and wider community to participate in creating a sustainable environment in their own home/space.
English
English
@JamesHow92 Sustainability doesn't have to be all serious and hard work. It can also be fun!!
English
@Emilyosheaeduc These are great ideas. I think it is also a community asset that students and their families can become involved in outside of school. Not everyone has the space or the set up for a garden at home.
English
What a great community resource! This could be a great school excursion to learn about responsible production of food and composting #SDG12 #educ4750 #UoNTeach

Community Garden – Hunter Multicultural Communities huntermulticultural.org.au/community-gard… Community Gardens is an invaluable resource in our community. Not only is there so much knowledge around gardening and sustainability but the experts and the knowledge is local #SDG11 #EDUC4750 #UoNTeach
English
@JamesHow92 I think #Collaboration and #Communication are two of the competencies that can be incorporated into most lessons. The are vital life skills and will be skills that will become more and more important in the ever changing world in which our students will live in the future.

Embedding the 6C’s in all areas of the curriculum ensures that we are equipping our students to effectively operate in the real world be. Sustainability in the community is a perfect real world problem for students to work on in school&outside of school #SDG11 #EDUC4705 #UoNTeach
Millee Ann@millee_ann2022
What better way to develop students’ 6C’s then working together to solve real-world problems? A way to incorporate this into the classroom is through #pbl, where students can work in a team and collaborate to solve a real-world problem like, #SDG14. #UoNTeach #educ4750
