How does it relate to SDG? en-us 2021-07-24 01:14:46 UTC 2025-12-03 14:37:02 UTC hello@padlet.com B1 Group 5: Addressing Poverty at a school level https://padlet.com/user_52a0cf88c00a46c28e1108d3df87a5f4_69839_1/lst81m0pa1fqqyq8/wish/1660752618 UN SDG: No Poverty
Project: Making a coconut scraper for sustainable living

The skills learnt during lesson time:
1. To design and construct a coconut scraper.
2.  To correctly measure, calculate the wood needed to make the scraper.
3. Application of work place safety and cleanliness. 
4. Appropriate use of tools.

STEM  integrated subjects 

Science: Identify texture and durability of wood (material) 
or scrap metal (recycle)
Technology: Correct use of tools 
Engineering: Design and structure of the scraper 
Mathematics: Measurements and calculations.

The school in a way promotes self reliance and develop productive citizens to contribute to the economy through local SMEs.

Teachers begin this project by conducting a survey of students' background and seek funding from the school to get this project started. Then help students construct the scrapers for display and sale. 

Teachers can also suggest help on ways that students can make money, choose other available designs to use, platforms to advertise their products that they can build on later in life.

Connection with UN MDG: Zero Hunger, No Poverty, Good Health and well being

Purpose: Students can pass on the skills and knowledge back to their community and have impact in their community to address the UN MDG goals on a small scale.

(ACT LOCALLY, THINK GLOBALLY)

STEM disciplines:
Science (environment and soil requirement)

Technology (safety, tools and methods, natural pesticide, natural  pest control)

Mathematics ( Measurement, ratio and proportion, rates.)

Data:  Students are keen learners and have great interest in learning concept practically.

Concept connecting the STEM disciplines: STEM PBL

Knowledge and skills for students: skills in calculating fluid flow rate, doing tests to soil and water acidity level and be a global responsible citizen.

Future learning basis: Life skills that promotes sustainable methods.

Connections to students world: PNG is a developing country and Agriculture is part and partial of our living. Learning other methods of sustainable farming is very important especially for people living on very small islands and people who have small land area and have access to water.

Reason to teach the project: Learn the life skills and concepts of STEM disciplines that will equip them to be productive citizen in their community and of this nation who will also take part in addressing UNMDG issues

POMIS joined a charity organisation called “Cool Earth”. It is a charity that works alongside rainforest communities to halt deforestation and its impact on climate change. It works with communities who want to protect their forest. Currently it works with about 3 villages in the Milne Bay Province, apart from some international communities such as Cambodia, Cameroon and Peru.

Grade 11/12 Biology students at POMIS did their maiden trip in 2019.Unfortunately due to covid-19 all educational field trips were cancelled for 2020 and 2021.

Having my year 11/12 Math class join the group would be a great opportunity to apply in real life the concepts and skills learned in class, for the unit of Statistics. They would be able to cover all steps involved in Statistics from the collection of data to analysing the data.

The STEM connection:

Science- Biology-Ecology/population

Maths- Managing Data: population sampling, collection of raw data, recording and displaying the data through tables and statistical graphs, analysing data and making conclusions/recommendations.
Measurement concepts


Technology: Use of Microsoft Excel as a recording and graphing tool, or another statistical software

                      Use of Scratch to create educational awareness videos on effects of climate change. Etc

-students learn  to examine or reason out cultural similarities, differences and  relations.
- learn to consider healthy working relationships in a healthy environment.
- ;learn to engage in a good interactions with each other. (collaborative ideas on the farming projects.)
- students develop the 4 C's and hence improve on their global knowledge  and intercultural knowledge.

This project will address SDG# 12-Responsible Consumption and Production

According to this goal, it will ensure sustainable consumption and production pattern.
This is because according to their statistics and data collected between the years 2000 and 2017
one million plastic drinking bottles are bought every minute
and five trillion single used plastics bags are thrown away.
The negative impart of these results can affect SDG# 13, 14 and 15.

For the above reasons, the school will partner with Bank South Pacific who runs a project called GO GREEN with the school once in a year and cleans the entire town area.

Cameron Secondary Grade 12 Biology students will carry out the Recycling Project on a Small Scale and that is within the school community.

What do I want the students to learn?
To manage waste pollution by recycling materials into simple useful products that can be used or sold and earn income to sustain their lively hood.

In doing this projects, the anchor subject is Science(Biology-Unit 12.1: Ecology and the Sub Topic: The Human Impact on the Environment. This project will also integrate Mathematics (Scales and Measurement), Design and Technology (Creating the products).
