todays lesson was all about being reasourceful
in this lesson we learnt there are many ways of getting information some of these ways are:
*internet
*books
*help from teachers
*Help from fellow group members
we also learnt that there are many ways in presenting information
it doesnt have to be paragraph after paragraph of writing
also we learnt the best way of working sucessfully is working together

Hi it's Jenny here!!
I think I'm doing the right thing :P
Ok.
1) Being resourceful was important in todays lesson because it was all about researching and using different ways to gather information. For example: Sehar had asked her mum yesterday about Cholera e.t.c, I had been researching Oral Rehydration Therapies on the internet last night and then in the lesson Anu went to the library and photocopied things from helpful books. Also Georgina and Raiqa were researching on the laptops.
2) In todays lesson I enjoyed using the laptops in the lab and being able to research and go about things on our own (***Independently***) And thanks for the oreos :)
3) What suprised me about todays lesson was that we have come to a conclusion that the task isn't really that hard (If you think about it logically) so we need to use all the BLP qualities for the powerpoint, poster and explaining e.t.c
Byeeeee x

Hey it's Isis reporting for team anonymous!!
Today's lesson was about being resourceful.
1.In yesterdays lesson we as a team used the resources avalible to us well.I had researched Oral Rehydration Therapy the night before and so had Fahima. In the lesson we used the laptops to find out some more information on Cholera.Aswell as the laptops, Chloe went to the library and photocopied some useful text.
2.As a team we did EVERYTHING sucsessfully but we worked well together using the laptops.Chloe also did very well collecting the information from books.
3. At the start of the lesson the laptops didn't really work but apart from that we communicated well and were able to work independently.
I hope those are good answers!

As Jenny said above thanks for the
OREOS

Hello!

I have to say that I am mega impressed with how the group are working independently, it is great to read that some of you are being resourceful in researching relevant stuff outside of lessons too! I am really enjoying the lessons!
Get in!

Hiya this is Daisy, and i'm here 2 tell you about RESOURCEFULNESS !!!

1)2be resourceful is an important skill which you will have2 use throughout your life. And especially 2day, because it was the 2nd lesson in2 the project and everyone was researching hard so that we can do the practical next lesson.
eg.
*Gemma and i shared a lap top, and researched key words, so we knew what you needed 2use and how2 ferment beer
*Jenna worked on a FABULOUS poster while being given research from the rest of the team
*Sajidah and Laura did research 2 but we made sre that we wern't doing the same thing
So we were all w being resourceful and i think we worked very well as a team !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2)I thought todays lesson was really fun and it wasn't just my group that enjoyed it either. but most of all i enjoyed the freedom of teachers who intrusted us with THE MOST AMAZING LAP TOPS IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD, who weren't even watching over us every second of every minute
3)I was really shocked that the team i'm in did so well in this topic, but i'm also glad, because i think we all agree it isn't too hard, plus the fact we are being educated but having loads of fun at the same time
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..................
THANK YOU Mr Dawson + DR A Rajp

Cya n i hope i idi the right thing now i did the same thing be4 but it didn't post lol daisy 7y

Hello :)
1) I think we used laptops, books from the library and think about things we have learnt in the past. This helped us to get a range of answers and ideas to use in our presentation and poster.
2) I think we got the research sorted and used e-mail to send it from one computer to the other, we also used the library and the computer so that we could get a variety of answers, this helped so we could get answers from different point of views.
3) I think we should have got that extra more research so we could back-up our answers even more!
THANK YOU! :D
