Welcome to our site..
We are going to write down our journey in learning, experiencing, experimenting and innovating about AQUAPONIC.

CENTRAL IDEA
Biodiversity relies on maintaining the interdependent balance of organisms within systems.

LINES OF INQUIRY
  • Ways in which ecosystems, biomes and environments are interdependent
  • How human interaction with the environment can affect the balance of systems
  • The consequences of imbalance within ecosystems
KEY CONCEPTS
Causation, Connection, Responsibility

RELATED CONCEPTS
Balance, Biodiversity, Interdependence

LEARNING OUTCOMES
  • Describe and examine the interactions of living things within and between ecosystems and interactions between living things and non-living parts of the environment
  • Recognize that solar energy sustains ecosystems through a transformation of energy
  • Investigate the conservation of energy in ecosystems
  • Analyze the effects of changing a link in a food web
  • Explain how human activities can have positive or adverse effects on local and other environments (for example, waste, agriculture, industry)

EXPLORING, WONDERING AND QUESTIONING

The students explore and do the brainstorm about aquaponic. They define the words aquaponic and find out the meaning, the function, the problems and also the scientific matter of it through articles and videos.
Mind Map of Aquaponic
From the information, we got that aquaponic can produce better plants and better fish.
We wonder how can the aquaponic is better than other farming system?
How aquaponic be a solution of urban farming?
How to make an aquaponic system?

Collecting data and reporting findings

To collect data about aquaponic, we went to BPTP (Balai Pengkajian Teknologi Pertanian) Jakarta on Thursday March 23, 2017.
We also visited Bapak Fadly whom use aquaponic sytems that he made by himself in his garden. He consume the aquaponic products for his food and family. He helped Sekolah Alam Ciganjur in making aquaponic system that is displayed in their Science Fair Event.
Reporting Findings.
We Report our findings through Venn diagram, fish bone, ECG, KWL, PMI and 6 Thinking hats charts.

experimenting and playing with possibilities

After we have the knowledge about aquaponic, we do an experiment:
-  Making aquaponic
-  Compare the aquaponic and non aquaponic system
We want to know:
-  How to make the simple aquaponic system
-  Which plants grow faster and fertile
-  Which fish is healthier
STEP 1
Making Aquaponic
A. Prepare the materials
Gallon bottle
Bamboo
Saw
Connective Cabel
Zeolit
Pump
B. The Process of making the aquaponic tool
Step 2
Experiment Process
Let the water flow through the zeolit for 1 day.

DEEPENING UNDERSTANDING THROUGH THE APPLICATION OF A CONCEPT

From our experiment we found some problems:
1. Using much electricity
2. There are lots of death fish
3. The plants didn't grow healthy
  1. Electricity become very important in aquaponic system. For saving the electricity we should use a bigger container.
  2. We have to pay attention the ammonia level in the water because it can make the fish die and the plants are infertile.

We believe with the knowledge we can make aquaponic from the simple and reusable materials that can help to develop urban farming and increase a family’s economy. So we decide to spread the knowledge about aquaponic to others.

on Friday May 5, 2017, we presented about aquaponic to Al Jabr students from 5th grade to the upper grade in the Student's Assembly.
We also visited and explained about aquaponic to our neighbor SDN 13 Pondok Labu (the member of SISWA PEDULI organization of SDN 13).
