EARTH DAY

 Edit 0 22…

Earth Day, which was established in 1970 in the US, is celebrated on 22nd April each year. It is a day to think about our planet and what we can do to keep it special; to think about saving water and energy, reducing pollution, recycling, protecting our animals, trees and plants, and generally getting kids interested in protecting their environment.

Let’s Recycle Look around, there’s so much plastic, Let’s recycle, it’s fantastic. Don’t forget, about paper and glass, Recycle together, with your entire class. We’ll make sure, we never litter, Let’s recycle, we’re not quitters. When we place our garbage, in the right bin, Both us and nature, will clearly win. Thanks for keeping the environment healthy and clean, Recycling is fun, and also quite green. by anitapoems.com

Here are some quick ideas for celebrating Earth Day:

• Go for a bike ride or a long walk (leave the car behind).

• Print out some of our posters and place in strategic positions around the school. Talk about saving water when brushing teeth and saving energy by turning off the lights when you leave a room.

• Gather family and friends together and combine a picnic or other excursion with a litter clean-up.

• Set up a recycling centre in your home or school.

• Plant a tree.

  
  

  Look through your shelves and find some books to give away via your local charity shop or library.
