Garbage In, Garbage Out!

Garbage In, Garbage Out

So, that was the topic dealt with the sixth graders in November end! The question is – What does the phrase mean! GIGO (Garbage In, Garbage Out) is a computer science acronym that implies bad input will result in bad output. Its a creative title given to the chapter which deals with the management of types of garbage. 

The expected learning outcomes are :-

Ø  To know how can we deal with Garbage and classify into Biodegradable and Non Biodegradable

Ø  To understand about landfill and composting.

Ø  To understand Vermicomposting.

Ø  To understand the 3Rs of managing the non biodegradable wastes.

Ø  To be able to understand Recycling of paper.

Ø  To be able to understand the reason to minimize the overuse of plastics.

The two categories of garbage and ways to deal with garbage were discussed. Use of two different bins to throw biodegradable and non -biodegradable wastes in our daily lives was shared. Various ways to manage the Biodegradable waste was explained like dumping the wastes collected from cities in landfill. Concepts of composting, vermicomposting and role of red worms in composting were discussed.  

The students used various digital tools to express their learning! Their happy faces in the class clearly said- 'Learning is Fun indeed!'
