The Environment

We just finished up our theme unit on the environment. We ended last week with green tye die shirts which the students were very excited about! (Pictures to come tomorrow.)

They have all taken home a green Save the Earth club checklist. When they fill it in with 30 check marks, they can bring it back for their Save the Earth membership card and earth key chain.

We talked a lot about the 3 R's. Ask your child to show you with their hands what each of them looks like and means! We had some interesting analogies offered in class!

Also, a sheet went home called "Which Bin does it go in?" The students are supposed to share their new knowledge with someone at home.
