Blog Number 5- Staples Contest

I’m not too sure on what you mean by brainstorming ideas, but if you are asking how the essay should be written and what criteria we should put on it, then I think that instead of every student writing the same essay on the same topic, the students should break up into groups and write an essay together consisting on how our school is environmentally responsible. We can talk about how one of our own teachers hosts the switch club which provided us with solar panels on top of our school, along with how we have courses at Mackenzie teaching the students about the damages and pressures humans have put on the earth, and how to change them, along with writing about our gardening club. I also think that by entering in this contest we will have the opportunity to upgrade our computer lab, although on aspect of the contest is to write about how we influenced the community, and I personally don’t see how we influenced our community around us. We will however I think be successful with environmental attributes and school and student leadership portion of the essay. Out of the three contests I think the Staples one is the more successful one.
