Labeling classes ( Reflection )

Minjin and I came to school on Wednesday in order to put labels to the classes.

While I was making labels, I found that there are a lot of features that I can apply which are not a supplied design by power point. Thus I thought that it will be a good idea for language department such as French, Spanish, English and German if the labels have each flag into the subject names. So I put french flag, British flag and Spanish flag and German flag into the subject names. I was not sure what to do with English but since BIS is british school, I decided to put British flag into the name. After making all the labels, I felt I have developed my power point skills 

When Mr Parker had a look at the labels before using laminators, he suggested using Deutsch instead of German and the same for other language department. Also, Russian was done by Minjin and since she did not put Russian flag into the name, I decided to change it with Russian flag. Also, Mr Parker said that nowadays, English is not only for British people so he said he thinks that putting British flag in English department is not right. Thus I thought it will be good to put the world flags to the name. In order to print some labels again, I went to the ICT room again and changed them. From this point, I considered of ethical implications.

After changes, Mr Parker satisfied with all the labels and then we started laminating labels. It was a new activity to undertake to me. However, the way to use the laminator was easy. I needed enough lamination papers and what we all needed to do was put the paper with the labels straightly to the machine and let it do itself. We found out that if we pushed into the laminator or pull out the paper that is laminating, it is likely to be warped. Using laminator was new challenge for both of us and from this activity we developed new skills as well as increased awareness of strengths and areas for growth. 

After cutting all the labels, we collaboratively put labels either on the door or on a wall.
Now we had taken picture of emergency evacuation map in order to make the floor map with class names to help new students and parents.
