Today we read the story, "Our Class is Going Green", which is a book written and illustrated by a kindergarten class from a school in Oklahoma.   Prior to reading the story, we had a class discussion about "Earth Day" and what it means.  WOW!!   We were so impressed with the contributions the children made.  Here were some of their thoughts and ideas...
    *"We can keep the Earth clean and healthy by recycling."
    *"We can ride bikes instead of driving cars."
    *"Don't litter or put trash in lakes."
    *"It's always good to recycle."
    *"Don't waste food--it's healthy for you."
    *"We use cloth napkins at our house instead of paper napkins."
    *"We use glasses instead of paper cups at our house."
    *"We should make a scrap box in our classroom for paper that is still good to use."
    *"We need to store petroleum which is a fossil fuel so we don't run out."
To do our part for the Earth, we are going to start a recycling program in our classroom!
