Life Below Water - Follow Up
As a follow up to our House Teams activity we will be looking at our plastic consumption at LES. For the week of January 20-24 we want students to pack their lunches as they have all year. We will be sending our grade 5 UNESCO students to collect the plastic that students are bringing daily. The students will then count the plastic. At the end of the week we will have a grand total of how much plastic we have used. The week of February 3-7 and ongoing, we are asking students to find alternatives to single use plastics in their lunches. We will have students collect and count plastic again and see what kind of a reduction we can make. Our grade 5 UNESCO students will have various roles in helping with this initiative. We will have grade 5 students eating in grade k-3 classes for the week to ensure that students are putting plastic in the plastic bags. Staff, we are asking that you oversee this at snack time. We will also ensure that each class has a plastic bag to collect plastic. Students will be on announcements daily. At 1:45 daily we will have a group of students coming to each class to collect your plastic from the day. They will bring it to the lobby, count it and return to class. |
