The intermediate classes wrapped up their unit on renewable and non-renewable resources with several projects. First, in groups they wrote and produced their own energy commercials. They object of these commercials was to persuade the audience to use their alternative energy source. (wind, nuclear, solar, etc.). We filmed these commercials and presented them to the other classes.
Secondly, to celebrate Earth Day students were challenged to represent Earth Day by having a custom contest, and coming up with ways to protect the environment. The classes started a recycling program at the school as well as made a schedule for all classes to take turns picking up trash around the campus. The day of the competition was fun! It was exciting to see how the students dressed up. I went with the theme, "Give a Hoot and Don't Pollute" and dressed up as an owl. They were all very clever in their ideas. The judge, Mr. Carson, ultimately choose our class as the winner! We won a pizza party which was yummy!
