Celebrating Earth Day in Mr. Woodruff's 2nd Grade Class







Throughout the last week, Mr. Woodruff’s Second Grade class has been celebrating Earth Day in a number of ways. The class wrote how and why we should take care of the Earth, put on some rubber gloves and picked up trash around the school campus, and planted sunflowers that are housed in the elementary library. The Earth Day activities tie in with their recently completed science unit, Interactions of Living Things.

After collecting the trash from campus each student got to pick up the large bag and guess how many pounds the class collected. 13 pounds of trash were collected from campus! Along with planting sunflowers, the class is also painting sunflowers in art class and researching facts about sunflowers in library. Look for their sunflower display in the library at Open House on May 5th!

Make Every Day Earth Day
