Module 2 guides students through a hands-on journey of creativity, sustainability, and teamwork. Learners begin by exploring eco-magical ideas, designing mini recycled gardens, and building the foundations for their enchanted fair stands. They then rehearse their eco-messages, practice science-based magic tricks, and learn to communicate clearly with visitors. Finally, students strengthen collaboration through a wolf-themed teamwork challenge where they refine their stands using peer feedback. Across all three units, the module develops environmental awareness, communication skills, creative thinking, and cooperative problem-solving.

Unit 1: The Enchanted Recycling Fair: Creative Spark

This unit introduces students to magical sustainability thinking and invites them to begin shaping ideas for their eco-wizard fair stand. Through a playful quiz, a science-based magic demonstration, and hands-on design using recycled materials, learners build a mini eco-magic garden while revisiting core concepts of reuse, teamwork, and environmental responsibility.

Key Concepts and Theories

Sustainability as a creative process

• Ecosystems reuse everything, and students can mimic this through recycled materials.

Magic as science

• Simple demonstrations can reveal invisible natural processes in fun, memorable ways.

Team creativity

• Designing a garden or stand requires communication, shared ideas, and problem-solving.

Nature cycles

• Compost, water cycles, and nutrients as inspiration for magical garden elements.

Practical Strategies and Techniques

• Use recycled materials intentionally, choosing items that symbolise natural elements (e.g., a bottle cap as a tool, string as irrigation).

• Encourage brainstorming using prompt questions rather than giving ready-made ideas.

• Build meaning into “magical elements” — they must represent real ecological processes.

• Guide students in constructing small 3D structures safely and creatively, with gentle support for groups that struggle.

Interactive Activity 1: Green Witchcraft School Quiz

Step 1: Introduction

• Students begin by opening the Genially “Green Witchcraft School” quiz on computers or tablets. The teacher explains that the quiz presents sustainability ideas through riddles and magical situations.

Step 2: Completing the Quiz

• Working individually or in pairs, students answer the questions, discussing surprising or tricky prompts as they go. The teacher circulates to offer hints when needed.

Step 3: Quick Review

• After finishing, the class briefly revisits key sustainability messages revealed in the quiz. Students share moments they found fun, confusing, or eye-opening.

Interactive Activity 2: Co-Creation Garden

Step 1: Tiny Theory

• The teacher explains that nature recycles endlessly — dead leaves become compost, water cycles continuously, and even “waste” creates new life. Students are invited to mirror this in a magical way.

Step 2: Choosing Materials

• Groups explore the collection of recycled materials. The teacher reminds them: Only recycled or natural items may be used.

Step 3: Building the Garden

• Each group creates a 3D mini-garden that includes one gardening tool, one irrigation idea, one compost/nutrient element, and one magical feature such as a glowing path or enchanted plant.

Step 4: Reflection

• Students complete a short reflection in their workbook, describing what they created and how they reused materials.

Interactive Activity 3: The Sound of Spells

Step 1: Choosing an Atmosphere

• Groups decide what emotion they want visitors to feel in their garden.

Step 2: Selecting a Sound

• They pick a matching soundscape (forest, water, wind chimes, magical bells). The teacher may play sample clips to inspire them.

Reflection and Discussion

• How did your team combine imagination and sustainability?

• What magical idea are you most proud of?

• Does your garden connect to real environmental issues?

• How did teamwork help your creation?

Unit Summary

In this unit, students activated their prior knowledge of sustainability through a magical quiz, explored creative environmental ideas, and worked hands-on to build mini recycled gardens. They used recycled materials intentionally, experimented with eco-magic concepts, and strengthened teamwork while imagining their future fair stand. The activities encouraged creativity, environmental responsibility, and playful exploration of how imagination and sustainability can work together.

Unit 2: The Enchanted Garden

In this unit, students transform their recycled gardens into interactive eco-stands. They design a simple magical demonstration, choose a clear eco-message, rehearse their presentation, and give structured peer feedback. The focus is on creativity, communication, and meaningful environmental storytelling.

Key Concepts and Theories

• Eco-messages must be clear, simple, and connected to real sustainability principles.

• Magic tricks should reveal real scientific or ecological ideas (e.g., water absorption, capillary action, density).

• Peer feedback helps refine communication, safety, and clarity.

Practice builds confidence

• Rehearsing improves timing, teamwork, and visitor engagement.

Practical Strategies and Techniques

• Start with a short list of possible eco-messages to inspire students (e.g., saving water, protecting soil).

• Encourage teams to test their magic trick multiple times for reliability and safety.

• Use Magic Feedback Cards to structure peer observations.

• Let teams present in rotating groups to ensure everyone practices both giving and receiving feedback.

Interactive Activity 1: Enchanting the Garden

Step 1: Introducing Eco-Messages

• The teacher revisits sustainability basics: nature reuses everything, small actions matter, and magic can reveal scientific ideas. Students select the eco-message they want visitors to learn from their stand.

Step 2: Brainstorming the Trick

• Teams explore how to turn part of their garden into a magical “moment”: a movement, color change, appearance, or transformation.

Step 3: Testing the Idea

• Teams sketch or test small prototypes using recycled materials. The teacher provides guidance, checking for safety and clarity.

Step 4: Finalizing the Trick

• Groups prepare their final trick, linking it clearly to their eco-message.

Interactive Activity 2: Stand Simulation

Step 1: Group Pairing

• Teams are paired. One group acts as visitors while the other presents.

Step 2: Presentation Sequence

Each presenting team:

• Welcomes visitors and states their eco-message.

• Performs the magic trick.

• Explains the message revealed by the trick.

Step 3: Feedback Round

• Audience teams fill in Magic Feedback Cards while observing. Roles are then switched.

Reflection and Discussion

• Did our magic trick help explain our eco-message?

• Did we communicate clearly?

• Was the feedback helpful?

• What changes will improve our stand?

Unit Summary

In this unit, students transformed their mini gardens into interactive eco-stands. They created simple, meaningful magic demonstrations, chose clear eco-messages, and practiced presenting their ideas to peers. Using structured feedback, groups improved clarity, communication, and stand design. Through rehearsals and reflection, students strengthened creativity, scientific thinking, and teamwork in preparation for the enchanted sustainability fair.

Unit 3: The Eco-Wolf Team Challenge

This unit strengthens collaboration through a wolf-pack-inspired teamwork challenge. Students analyze peer feedback, practice adaptive communication roles, and improve their eco-stands. By stepping into special roles such as Silent Wolf or Working Wolf, students learn trust, cooperation, and creative problem-solving.

Key Concepts and Theories

• Wolves succeed through shared roles, trust, and communication — a metaphor for strong teamwork.

• Feedback improves clarity, safety, and visitor engagement.

• Role constraints help students discover new ways of supporting each other.

• Reflection helps identify meaningful changes for the final eco-stand.

Practical Strategies and Techniques

“Three Findings Framework”

• What people liked, what needs improvement, what will make the biggest difference.

• Assign playful wolf roles to explore communication under constraints.

• Celebrate effort, not speed — focus on cooperation.

• Offer an optional improvement sprint to refine the stand after practicing.

Interactive Activity 1: Reading Feedback Together

Step 1: Returning Cards

• Teams receive their Magic Feedback Cards from Unit 2.

Step 2: Sorting Feedback

• They read comments and identify three things visitors liked and the most important improvements.

Step 3: Prioritizing

• Teams choose the changes that will have the biggest impact on clarity, safety, or engagement.

Interactive Activity 2: The Eco-Wolf Team Challenge

Step 1: Assigning Roles

• Each student secretly receives a wolf role: Silent Wolf, Blind Wolf, Quiet Alpha, or Working Wolf.

Step 2: Completing an Improvement

• Teams attempt one improvement using only the abilities permitted by their roles. Students must rely on each other and adapt creatively.

Step 3: Debrief Discussion

• Teams discuss feelings, discoveries, and how the challenge strengthened communication.

Reflection and Discussion

• What did the wolf roles teach us about teamwork?

• What improvement made the biggest difference?

• How did feedback guide our decisions?

• Are we more confident presenting now?

Unit Summary

In this final unit, students analyzed peer feedback, strengthened teamwork, and improved their eco-stands through a wolf-themed communication challenge. By taking on special wolf roles, they developed trust, adaptability, and creative problem-solving. Teams refined their stands based on visitors' comments and prepared to present them confidently. The unit highlighted how cooperation, reflection, and shared responsibility lead to stronger environmental messages and better presentations.
