Miss Yolande´s class is all into a new Unit called "Sharing the planet and preserving natural resources" and they had a great idea. A lot of kids
keep on dropping pencils on the floor resulting on lead breaks on the
inside and after that they have a hard time sharpening them again.The
point will break constantly and they have to keep sharpening until they
have sharpened a new pencil to a little stump in a short time. So they
talked about pencils are made from trees and more new pencils means more
trees cut to make them.They decided to go around to other classes to see
if they had all kinds of badly used pencils and did the posters to
spread the message, the pencil cartoons to make it fun to look at and to
"see"the point of view of the pencils and the art to show that you can
recycle things into cool art. Even the posters are done on used
copy paper! Keep it up, kids!
El curso de Miss Yolande está desarrollando la unidad llamada "Compartiendo el planeta y preservando los recursos naturales" y se les ocurrió una gran idea. Muchos niños dejan caer sus lápices lo que hace que las puntas y la mina se rompan y tengan que sacarles punta una y otra vez. Se discutió en clases que los lápices provienen de los árboles y que para hacer nuevos hay que cortar más árboles. Los niños decidieron hacer posters de papel reciclado para tomar conciencia y hablaron con sus compañeros de otras clases para incentivar el cuidadio del planeta. ¡Sigan así, chicos!
