We decorated 225 bags!

About our project: I was taking a technology course through Kendall College and saw the Earth Day Internet Project. I became excited as I knew this would be a way to do something as a class and then I thought even broader, making the project center-wide. The children found this to be exciting and also educational as they learn about caring for our planet. The children learned many things different songs related to this topic, understanding caring for the earth and why we need to protect it. We learned about reducing, re-using and recycling.
