Earth Day was Sunday, April 22nd. This week, we are learning about Earth day and things we can do that are good for the planet. With 1st and 2nd grade, we watched a short video about the environment and both good and bad things we do to the planet. Then, the children brainstormed their own ideas of things they can do to help the Earth.
Finally, each student cut and colored a picture of Earth and wrote three of their ideas on three hearts. We are going to string the hearts to the Earth to create a mobile. The kids are learning a lot and really enjoying the project! They're excited to take it home and show their parents.

Many of the students learned to tie a knot in order to do the craft. They enjoyed the project and learned about positive things we can do for the Earth!
