We Only Have One Earth!

Help me give my students an Earth Day Celebration! The reusable bags and markers will encourage my students to use the 3 R's!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Daniels's classroom raised $268

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are creative and enjoy learning about nature. With so many products being available that are disposable, children need to learn how to reuse materials that they have so that they do not add to garbage in landfills and oceans.

To aid students in learning the 3 R's (Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle) students will each be given a reusable bag to decorate with fabric markers.

The stress balls will aid them as a reminder to regulate their emotions, and the stickers will go onto reusable water bottles that they will have, to help cut down on using disposable water bottles.

Projects about bees will be used to discuss the importance of bees to nature and the food chain.
