Cary’s Corner:

Monday, October 13th, 2008

Ever wonder what the middle-schoolers in your life are learning about the environment?  Here are a few more insights from my 11-year old niece Cary.

Have your teachers used any good lessons or demonstrations that helped you learn about the environment?
Yes we all recycle. We also plant tulip bulbs.

Has your school or scout troop ever done an environmental field trip or service project?
Yes.  I wasn’t able to go but my class went on a field trip to clean up Sharon Woods lake. Our scouts have gone on a field trip to clean part of a forest.

What in your house would you run with human-power (aka riding a bicycle or turning a crank to power something) if you could?
I would power the garage door opener or things like that.

Are any of your school supplies made of recycled paper or materials?
Yes they are we always use both sides of paper and all of our paper has already been recycled.
