Genius Hour Reflection Activity: The purpose of my genius hour project was to make our school more Eco friendly. This is done with more trash cans around the school and more signs that tell you not to litter.
The process of my genius hour project was fun and I believe more people are being more charismatic about littering. Originally Liam and I thought that this was going to be a lot of work, it was, but it turned out to be fun and enjoyable. Also it made me feel like a better person when I did a good deed. So first we got the idea, then the result. The idea was to clean outside around the perimeter of Kingsford school and make a much healthier system. This idea would have never happened if my sister wasn’t such an Eco freak and didn’t make me drone to her beliefs. Though I am happy because I did act upon this and every little bit helps. So the idea turned into reality, and this is the best reality I could have imagined.Results did vary back and forth a numerous amount of times. Some days were lazy and others productive but right now, things are better than ever. I never would have imagined that the results would be this amazing. It really shows how people feel about our environment and how they want to take care of it.
My intention for the project was to make people more conscious about where they're putting their trash. So far it has been working well and it will progress throughout my time at KHS. I plan on keeping this going for as long as I can, even after graduation. Hopefully I have had an impact on our environment and the community. People need to learn we only have one earth, as far as we know, and we should take care of it. Liam and I shared our learning with our community by placing recycling bins and trash cans spaced out around the school’s perimeter. Though they are not outside at the moment, they were there. I have begun to see less trash outside. The result in which I am hoping for is that people are more aware of the dangers trash can cause the planet. Go green! Recycle!
