AGENDA FOR APRIL In expectation of the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, our students will be writing reports on important environmental issues which directly affect Floridians. Students will prepare a poster and a one page report explaining the issue. Posters and Reports will be on display at the School Wide Earth Day Celebration on April 22, 2010.

We will keep Earth day as our classroom theme this month, and in keeping with our holistic plan for education the students will be reading and writing about environmental topics.

We will be writing our own Earth day poetry and stories this month.

Recommended reading list for the month (you may choose other books, as long as they remain in theme). Alejandro’s Gift by Richard E. Albert The Snail and the Whale by Julia Donaldson The Lorax by Dr. Seuss John Muir: America’s First Environmentalist by Kathryn Lasky Nature’s Green umbrella by Gail Gibbons 50 Simple Things Kids Can Do to Save the Earth by The Earthworks Group
