We are S.L. Lewis Elementary School located in College Park, Georgia. We have
643 students in grades Pre-K thru 5, all of whom are decorating grocery bags
to be used on April 22 at our local Union City Kroger. Thanks to Kroger, who
has supported our efforts in this project for the last two years, the students
of our school have the opportunity to do their part along with our school's
white paper and newspaper recycling program to show that they care about the
environment.

Wow ! Our entire school ( kids from age 5 to 13 )took a great
deal of interest in the project this year. We decorated
over 500 grocery bags with many colourful,decorative designs
and catchy slogans.
A local environmental magazine also picked up the story of
the Grocery Bag project and published it for Earth Week ! It
seems that kids of all ages really do care about what happens
to their home !
The bags were presented to Thrifty Foods ( the Colwood Store )
and they were delighted to take part with our school for a second
year in a row.
Although still under construction, our home page will feature
many of the beautiful designs our students created.

Grand View School kindergarten children in the classrooms
of Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Shepherd and 3rd grade students in
Mr. Goss' class decorated 75 grocery bags while they learned
about recycling, conservation and environmental awareness.
Eighth grade girls helped the kindergarten children. Reasor's
Grocery Store gave us the bags and they will sack
groceries in them on Earth Day, April 22, to pass along the
message to their shoppers. We would like to thank Mr. Ahlness
for a wonderful project which we learned about by using the
Internet. This is the first time we are joining with schools
all over the world to do a classroom project with an Internet
component.
Comments about Earth Day from Mr. Goss' 3rd Graders:
Kyle: "Pollution is bad for people, animals, and everything
on the Earth."
Alex: "I told my Mom about our Earth Day Project. I told her
the Earth is very big with many countries, and we have to
take care of it."
Jordan A: "Keep our planet clean so the animals can breathe."
Matt: "We can make a difference. We should take care of our
Earth now, so it will be good for the future when we are
old."
Jeremy: "I think that cleaning up the Earth would help our
environment."
Jordan H.: "People should stop polluting the Earth so we can
live longer."
Brandon: "We need to recycle."
Mr. Goss: "Hug a tree. Save a life."

At Cameron Street School in Collingwood, we are participating in the Earth Day
Groceries Project for the second year. 470 students will be re-using paper to
create
Earth Day Messages and illustrations. They will be inserted in grocery bags
(plastic) at our local Loblaw's store.
We are also working on another Earth Day Project. Our school is hoping to
collect 10 cents from each student so we can raise enough money to help
"purchase" one metre of the Trans Canada Trail. The Trans Canada Trail is a
Millenium project that should be ready for July 1, 2000. There will be a trail
that runs from British Columbia to P.E.I.
People will be encouraged to use the trail for walking, biking, cross country
skiing, snowmobiling and horseback riding. Groups and individuals that donate
$36 to the trail will get their name on a plaque at a pavillion. This trail
will allow Canadians and others to enjoy the beauty of our country and
participate in outdoor activities. We would like to see other schools take up
the challenge of raising enough money to purchase one metre of the trail. If we
all give a little, together we can accomplish great things. Enjoy Earth Day
at your school!

We are getting our sacks from a home town grocery store called Market Place.
They are very cooperative with the schools.

Students from K-5 at our year-round school have been decorating for over

April 20-24 to distribute our bags. We will place a box at the stores
so customers can re-donate back the bags for bookcovers to be used at
the school. This will show our students another example of reusing.

participated in decorating bags for Earth Day. In grades 1 -6, students
designed a bag in art class and decorated another bag when extra time
was available in their homeroom classes. In our preschool classes, we
designed our bags at learning center time in conjunction with a unit on
recycling and ecology. The students enjoyed decorating the 500 bags to
be distributed to happy shoppers at our State Line Albertson's Store on

voluteered their take-out bags for our project. Children in grades K-3
decorated 191 bags which were distributed by Rudy's Rendezvous in Lacona, Iowa,
during the week of April 20, 1998. The students used cardboard earth templates
to draw a basic design. Crayons made each bag unique. This is our first year
as part of the grocery project. It was fun for the whole school community.
