ONLINE MEETING WITH ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVIST OZGE DORUK 12.04.2023

While covering the main idea of “Conscious Use of Limited Resources Affects the Future of Societies” as part of the unit “Sharing the Planet”, Grade 4 students discussed “Sustainable Living”. After learning about limited and unlimited resources, they comprehended the meaning of sustainable living and realized what they can do to achieve it. To consolidate their knowledge of the issue, they invited Environmental Activist Özge Doruk to their classrooms for an online meeting, where they learned the meaning of environmental activism as well as the aim, actions, and projects of “The Green Thought Association”. Our students got really excited to better understand the “action” component of the PYP and meet someone who actually engages in such actions. Also, they took the opportunity to share their own projects with Özge Doruk and realized that little steps might lead to big changes.
