Save the Planet Project

Always remember:
1. Clear your Canvas the first day a new project is assigned.
2. Fill in your time card with what you are working on each day because by Friday you might not remember. Be honest with the score you give yourself; off task behavior that you do not record will affect both your academic and citizenship grades.

Over the next 3 weeks, you will be working on one of several projects as part of a whole - SAVE THE PLANET PROJECT - You will be graded for your own efforts but will be allowed to work with others to brainstorm and come up with overall ideas.  EACH STUDENT MUST SHOW THEIR OWN EFFORTS. 

Mrs. Liebke (Our school's VP) has asked us to come up with several ways to encourage students to reduce the amount of waste, reuse as much as we can of what is already here, recycle everything we can and make sure that when we must throw something away that it makes it all the way into its proper place.  
       Working with your table mates or elbow partners, each group must come up with 3 solutions that meet at least one of the four situations listed above (reduce, reuse, recycle or put trash in its place).  You will then prototype your solutions using the tools and techniques you were to have learned so far this year.

Design Brief

One of the ways to help reduce the amount of waste being brought onto campus that Mr. Johnson came up with is for students to put their names on their water bottles.  You will be asked, when you are ready to create two sets of stickers for yourself of for a friend / family member to show that you know how to use the vinyl cutter.  You will then show the next person how to make stickers of their own (teach it forward).
