= Happy Monday Ponte Vedra! It is the beginning of Earth Friendly Week! 1. By the mailboxes are the Publix paper brown bags. Use them to tally how much paper you are placing in the recycler. As you see, the paper recycler has been moved to a more central location. __Please reuse the Publix bags as a tool for measuring your recycling growth__! When on Wednesday I will ask you all to email me as to how many filled bags of paper products were placed in the recycler. Thursday in 5th grade class we will total how much paper we have recycled this week. The goal is to be effective in our recycling! 2. Please take note of the 4th grade classes giving water conservation tips on the announcements in the morning and afternoon. They are trying to help us become more aware! 3. I will buy sidewalk chalk this afternoon and drop them off to the faculty Mailboxes. If the weather forecast is promising, feel free to start early. 4. Thursday is Blue, White and Green Day! Thanks for all of your efforts! Awareness is a great place to start! Carolyn   = = Earth Day 2011 = Thursday April 21 at School

1. Encourage students to wear their blue, white, or green shirts (earth colors) to school in honor of the Earth Day. 2. The paper bin will be located in the center of campus. Students will spend the week making sure that all paper products that can be put in the bin are put in the bin. We will measure how many Publix paper bags full of paper we can put in the bin. 3. Earth Day Art Walk ~ Sidewalk chalk mural to Earth created by the students. Please talk about this with the students so they are "theme" ready when they create their section of the walk. The Art Walk will run the pathway from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade building to the dog house. Please leave time in the end of the day so that all the students can see our art walk. If the weather forecast is good, feel free to start this project before Thursday. 4. Fourth Grade Water conservation Project. The fourth grade will be making announcement on tips to conserve water all week. =Science = =Wacky Science Wednesday Schedule =
