My students have previously been exposed to sustainable living practices during the school's Solar 1 initiative, and have shown so much excitement in learning about alternative energy sources and doing hands-on activities relating to it. In wanting to encourage their thinking more about the future of clean energy, I think that doing more hands-on activities is one way of showing them how to build a sustainable future. Having these materials in the classroom will help my students understand the importance of alternate sources of energy. The textbooks will provide students with the information they will need to understand and expand what they previously learned about solar energy. We also do sustainable Friday's at the school where we teach about how recycling helps our environment, so the Super Solar Recycler will help them see how recycling really works, and what we can do with recycled products. As part of our sustainable Friday's project, we also had students bring in plastic bottles to create hydro labs in the classroom. Having a real hydro lab in the classroom will be a great experience for them. In science, we talk about the process water goes through before we can drink it. Seeing hands-on how water filtration works by using the Water FIltration Kit will give them a first-hand experience of the process. Working in a special needs classroom, my students benefit a great deal from hands-on activities. Learning how things work and then seeing how it works, especially when they're doing it themselves will bring a whole new experience for my students.
