Teachers: Pam Grimes and Elke Clarus<br />
Assistance: Aaron Chivington and Bianca Ginas<br />
Grade 1 and 2 have been exploring,<br />
How We Share Our Planet: Protecting Our<br />
Environment.<br />
Grades 1/2 visited the Umweltzentrum and the local<br />
Sindelfingen Vogel und Nature Zentrum. They visited various<br />
habitats and were able to see first-hand insects, creepy<br />
crawlies, amphibians and birds and discuss how we should<br />
respect their environments.<br />
In preparation for Earth Day 2011, the class read “The Lorax,”<br />
by DR. Seuss and came up with current events that were<br />
similar to situations in the story. They presented their findings<br />
at a whole school assembly on April 21 st and also shared ways<br />
in which they have already begun to protect their environment.
