Earth Day is on Sunday April 22nd and Kitchener will be participating in weekly activities that will raise awareness on ways that we can help keep our Earth clean. Our first activity was held on this past Friday where we had our own version of Earth Hour called Kitchener Unplugged. This upcoming week each class has been challenged to try to complete as many squares on our Earth Day Bingo sheet as we can (see picture below or the bingo board in our classroom window). Tasks can be completed by as a whole class or by individual students with their families. If you complete a task at home let Ms. Dente or myself know so we can mark it down on the sheet. On Tuesday April 17 there will be a bottle drive at the school where students are encouraged to bring in returnable bottles from home with the proceeds going to the Chari Tree Foundation. Our Kitchener Earth Day activities will come to a close on Tuesday April 24th when the whole school in their buddy class pairs will go around our community to help clean up garbage.
I hope you have a great time participating in the challenges and activities!
