In this project my group created a website that in forms the reader how to grow various plants. The website its self contains direction on how to get the seeds, where to plant them, and how to keep them alive. Along with nutrition/vitamin facts.
Growing: This includes farmers planting and maintaining a crop or various crops.
Harvesting: This is when the farmers harvest, gather and collect the crop they've been growing.
Packing: This is when the farmer packs said crop in containers to be shipped away.
transporting: This is the shipment of the food to various locations like stores or farmers markets.
Retailing: This is the buying and selling of food by workers or sometimes the farmers.
Eating: This is when the people buy the food and consume it.
Disposing: Most of the disposed food will be decomposed into composting and added to soil.
Reflection:
This project was a fun way to take a break from the standard biology class. I learned the importance of the systems around me and how much each step counts from the simple decomposition of the food I eat to the mass growing of a crop I learned a lot about how my food got to my plate. I demonstrated collaborator as my group and I created a well thought through poster. I also demonstrated conscientious learner as we got to learn about the traditions of those around us and how there families operate. I feel during this project I got off task more than I would have liked to, next unit I will make sure I stay on task more. I was also not putting my best effort into the assignments and will hope to improve on that next unit.
