5th grade

"I want it, I need it"
Students categorize items into what is NEEDED and what is WANTED.
Open discussions about what natural resources are used in making all the things we have are very enlightening. Working together they discuss differing opinions and ideas of what is a need and what is a want. Listening in and joining group conversations and sharing perspectives and thoughts is mind opening for all of us.

Students are encouraged to take inventory of the things they possess and figure out their "footprint".
Environmental education goes a long way!
