Individual Reflections for Literature Mid-Year Project 2008
Sec 2 Express

Eco-friendly features about my group’s 3D-model

1) we had reused wood sticks for our project as it can be recycled and is biodegradable.

2) we also used toilet rolls to create the slides, it can be recycled and biodegradable.

3) the strings that were used to bind the materials together are also biodegradable and we are reusing it.

4) in the balls room, we used use magazines to make the paper balls.

Playground designs/concepts that are linked to the novel

1) there is a bridge at the entrance which led the children into a different world ( playground ), hence the bridge at the entrance post the same meaning as the bridge in the novel.

2) the slide in the central of the playground look like a small kingdom, children can stand on top to have a bird-eyeview on their happy land ( playground). this is almost the as the 'kingdom' in the novel.

3) the drawing room is where children can draw out the world they want to live in, this would give them a sense of autonomy.

4) the fencing which separate the different rooms remind people about the house Jess lived at the rural side of the country.

Playground designs/concepts that meet the special needs of the children

1) the board we used is golden in colour as children with non-contagious but terminal disease are sensitive to the colour of the sun.

2) we did not choose any sharp or dangerous materials for fear the children may hurt themselves as they may be careless in their actions.

3) we used bright colours to pain the playground so as to cheer up the children in a silent way. base on my knowledge, children who suffer from non-contagious but terminal disease usually have a sense of been dead.
