My Project

My students are conscientious about the world around them. In our Social Studies class, we have studied the environment and the way that our actions can impact the people and world around us. As we move closer to Earth Day, the items requested here will allow my students to continue learning, exploring and studying the environment.

The books requested will allow students to use the information learned from the resources to apply to their service learning project; while the crafts and paper will allow for their creations to be made.

Students will be studying the impact of our actions on the world and the environment by creating a presentation on ways to use recycling and, more importantly, how to cut down on plastic waste that pollutes our oceans and lands. Students will then prepare a visual presentation using the long fadeless paper and stickers, with other art supplies around the classroom to show their peers. Lastly, we will use the boxes and rolling cart to transport items to and from our classroom to the outside grounds of our school and other classrooms to share these ideas, presentations and useful items with others in interactive and fun ways.
