Taking Responsibility

As Grade 1s end the unit, we went further by looking at the reason why the unit is significant and how we can apply our learning in action. We looked at the problem of FOOD WASTE that is happening at school. The Grade 1s did a survey by asking homeroom teachers to note down how many students in their class do not finish lunch and the reasons why they do so. The survey result showed that a total of 25 students did not finish their lunch. Looking at this data, the number seems small, so we tried to see the bigger picture by checking if this is consistently happening everyday, then that would be 125 lunches a week, 500 lunches a month and 6,000 lunches a year. Then they worked in groups to share possible small steps that DSKI students can take to lessen or totally prevent food waste at school.
