On Thursday we began the day following up with our playground clean-up and getting ready for Zero Waste Day next Friday, June 10. You may have seen Elizabeth's e-mail. She read a wonderful story called One Plastic Bag. Then the kids broke into groups to make posters about recycling, composting (under Larry's guidance), trash, zero waste day. The trash group was overwhelmed by the task of counting the items- there was just too much of it :(
Later in the day, we had a visitor come speak with us about the importance of staying protected from the sun, especially in the summer. Carlene Newell works in the district, traveling to all schools talking about important health subjects. The kids made bracelets with beads that change color when exposed to UV rays- a fun reminder of how strong the sun is.
