My Project

Although every day is Earth Day, it's always great to highlight our earth and teach this generation about climate change.

Teaching our students how to be superheroes to our earth is so important right now.

I have chosen books that will teach students about the 3 R's - reduce, reuse, and recycle. I hope that they will learn that even at a young age, they can make a difference. I have also chosen books about our oceans so that students will learn about their impact on an area they often don't get to go in but is super important to our earth's health.
