Gaige Day And Reflections

We presented our presentation at the Gaige building to our fellow classmates along with those who visited the building. We talked about our research we did and our EACAP project. On the left side and the middle of our poster we presented our EACAP project. On the right side of the poster we gave a summary of our research we did. For our EACAP project, we went to Glenside Elementary School. We did decorations for their Reading Night which was inspired by The Lorax and The Very Hungry Caterpillar. We decorated part of the cafeteria and the hallway that leads into the cafeteria. In total, we spent over 8 hours decorating, including the time we spent buying the decorations and actually decorating our 2 sections. We also helped the farm stand they had during the event where fresh produce was sold to local residents/families. Our reflection as a group is that in the beginning we didn’t know any of each other (for the most part). We all got along together and worked together as a team pretty good. All of us enjoyed walking around and listening to the others present their projects to us in Gaige. Some of them were really good and interesting. As a final thought, by working together we can really make a positive change in the world, even if it’s something small.

Starting the Progress

We started to set our project up and prepared it before the event was going to occur. We made all of our cutouts which included things from The Lorax, Dr. Seuss (Oh The Places You’ll Go), Horton Hears a Who and The Very Hungry Caterpillar. We had to prepare different stations and decorations around each corner of the cafeteria, along with the hallway that led to the cafeteria, all of which had different themes. The event lasted around 2:30 to 3 hours during which the elementary students along with families came to visit and enjoy the event. During the time of the event, there were different stands that we attended, one of them being a fresh produce stand where we sold fresh produce to nearby families and residents. This was to help raise money as a fundraiser.
