Hello
Welcome back to my amazing blog
Today, I’ll be talking about…
(Drumroll please)
The PLP Spring Exhibition!
For this exhibition, we were divided into groups, with the gr. 9s (the 10, 11, 12s were doing something else).
My group consisted of:
Grade 8s – Brooke, Ruby, Kadin, Silas, Jasper, Ronan, Seth, and Max
Grade 9s – Teva, Makenna, Sabrina, Claire, Mateo, Sylas, Gwen, Luca, and Dylan
We were assigned a theme that we had to do, all relating to PLP. Ours was PBL (Project based learning), and the driving question we answered was ‘How do we learn?’.
In PLP, we follow the project pathway. Here it is-
Here is a map of our room:
Everyone was assigned a certain part of the project pathway. Brooke and I (also Teva but they were doing the gr. 9 part of this so I don’t really know what was happening so I won’t try and explain it) were doing Present and Reflect. We decided that we would each put together a keynote presentation with clips from our blog posts, and explain what we learned.
All members of our group helped with setting up the room for the exhibition. Here are some photos:
Now, you’d think that since we were present and reflect, which is the final step in a project, where you showcase your learning and final product, that Brooke and I would’ve gotten a fair bit of attention from people walking through our room.
No.
We didn’t.
About 50% of people just walked past us.
Brooke and I didn’t have a table or display so we were just standing holding our iPads.
Our station was right next to the exit door and I think people thought we were just the people who stood by the door and said ‘bye’.
The other stations had documentaries playing, were handing out gummys, did a drawing critique activity, and more. (Look at my teammates blogs to see what they did)
We didn’t have that kind of stuff, but we still did talk to a lot of people. I think I could’ve done a better at trying to draw people in to see our presentations, but talking to random people I don’t know isn’t my strong suit and I get pretty stressed. But, I tried, and compared to the beginning of the year, I’m a lot better at stuff like this, and I don’t get as stressed.
Also here is a picture of me hiding behind a door:
Brooke and I dubbed this the ‘panic corner’

So that’s my post on the Spring Exhibition of 2022!
I hope you enjoyed reading this!
