Climate Change Project

So back in July I started this environmental project with my school to educate my students and raise awareness about Climate Change. In July I taught a lessons about what is climate change?, the causes and effects, and what we can do to help stop it. In July- we focused on Earth Pollution, September- air Pollution, and October- water pollution. Each year level got to pick a culminating activity to do to help stop climate change. First year chose a tree planting and a campus wide clean up, Second year chose a mangrove tree planting, and Third and Fourth yea did a River clean up. The kids had a really good time and learned a lot. :) Here are the pictures


Fourth year students making posters encouraging people not to litter.
