A UNIFYING LEARNING PROJECT
With: Filla Nova Marianna
At the beginning of the new academic year, We, teachers and students, are jointly determining learning projects for the next year. The children are already planning what research they want to do and what will be their final project. Most of them want to research cooking. There are also those who want to research the history of Turkey. There are various kinds of research they want to do. After determining the research stage, we went on to discuss the final project in class 5 This.
We discussed for days to determine this project and in the end we agreed that it would be the final class project 5 will make a shop. Because they were friends who wanted to research the history of Turkey, they finally agreed that this shop would have a Turkish feel.
Actually, behind this project they have problems in the class. Namely the cohesiveness in the class that has not yet been developed. Men and women still often argue, it even made them cry too. I am the facilitator in class 5 asking about the reasons behind them creating the final project of a shop with a Turkish feel. They told their reasons and hopes. They hope that by creating this shop they can cover all their classmates' research 5. With this project, they can also become united because they can work together with each other.
I am the facilitator in class 5 follow what they plan and try to facilitate. Every day there are many challenges that arise from the goals and hopes that have been planned at the beginning and it is better if they are invited to reflect every time there is a problem and there is always a good solution that emerges from themselves..
From various series of planning and looking for information about the shop, I always monitor and remind them of their goals and hopes in creating this project..
The first trial was to make a shop on the night of Ramadhan during Ramadhan Islamic boarding school activities. And the results were all beyond expectations. What are the initial goals, what are the initial hopes. Reflection of them, they feel less able to be united, they feel they cannot work together well. Finally, they want to improve this research in a second trial during collaboration with many classes. They want to build a cafe with their seniors and underclassmen. Until finally a cafe was created with the name Kafe Salimna which is an abbreviation of Satu, Lima and Enam and Salimna themselves have the meaning of Security for all of us.
From the Salimna cafe, they can show that they can work together well, they can work together to help each other. No one cried anymore when the ddi cafe opened and no one was jealous of each of their roles.
