World Environment Day: A Shared Story With Hatton Vale State School, Australia

June 5 is "World Environment Day." This day was instituted by the United Nations to stimulated worldwide awareness of the environment. A day to promote caring for our planet, Earth. World Environment Day is celebrated around the world with street rallies, bicycle parades, green concerts, essay and poster competitions in schools, tree planting, recycling efforts, clean-up campaigns and much more. 

We, second graders, have celebrated  this day through a collaborative project with our friends at Hatton Vale State School in Queensland, Australia. We decided to write a story together, so we took turns with each class writing a part alternate weeks. It was a new experience and the excitement grew as we eagerly awaited the moment that we could all read our Aussie friends' parts. 

Special Thank You to Ms. Amanda!

Reusing and Reducing

Nursery children are Learning about " Pets". They collected empty bottles, old CDs and empty boxes, painted and decorated them to make pets out of these items instead of throwing them away. They learned the importance of reusing things to reduce waste and help the environment. Let's keep our environment clean through reusing and reducing. That's not all, we also made our classroom and playground environmental rules as a reminder :)
