Are you ready? Earth day is almost here!!! Can you tell that this is one of my favorite holidays? Of course you've heard the expression that "Everyday is Earth Day"...well yes it is, but Earth Day is a great time to share ideas with kids who never take the time to think about it.
Our Earth Club put together a book about what we can do to save the earth. We put a copy in the library and will put together a brief video.
Our classroom lives for the Earth every day! We compost our plant scraps, have seedlings for the garden, take care of our classroom pets and adopt the critters from science in the other grades. Microgreens were even sampled by EVERYONE in the class. With all this going on in the classroom, everyday I find paper in the garbage and garbage in the recycle bin! They are little and just don't know or care until they learn why.
Next week we'll be digging into Earth friendly practices and learning to reduce, reuse and recycle. I'll post updates throughout the week. If you're interested in my "Earth Day Mini Unit" check out my store. There's also a freebie with math problems based on environmental facts. I'm throwing a sale on the Earth Day Mini Unit through Friday if you want a good deal!
