Hi welcome to the last blog post of grade eight and because I am not doing PLP next year this could very well be my last post EVER (cue the dramatic music). We just had the summer exhibition and it was pretty cool (well the food was). We got to work together with the grade nines which was fun.
The driving question for my section (conclusion) was “What is a PLP learner”
I met with my group members and because the grade nines had already planned most of the exhibition the best we could to was try and give our inputs and critiques, which they were very open to.
In the conclusion group there were a few sections. In one of the areas we had all of the PLP trophies on display, in one we were doing a instant challenge, in one we were having people answer our driving question “what is a PLP learner”, in one we were displaying the grade nine documentaries, and in one we had some work displayed and skittles to hand out. I was stationed in the hall of hard work.
Here is a map of our section
In the hall of hard work I displayed two paragraphs I wrote. I described the meaning of them in my artist statement below.
Basically my job was to stand in front of my work and tell people about it when they walked by. It was pretty fun but most people were just looking for the grade elevens.
We had breaks but because I drank two iced waters before the exhibition I had to go use the bathroom ever five minutes.
The exhibition was a really fun experience and it was a great way to end the school year!
