To help us reflect, we read some books, made Earth Day pledges, and asked our friends on Twitter what they knew about Earth Day.
To see the bright ideas from our class discussion about Earth Day, click on the file below:

They gave us the clever idea to go on a Nature Walk, so we did that afternoon. We each took a photo of our walk and sent them over Twitter. The next morning we found a wonderful surprise! Mrs. Frazier's class had included our Nature Walk photos and their Nature Walk photos in a VoiceThread slideshow!
Since then, a Grade 2 class from Maine has also shared their Nature Walk pictures. We had lots of fun finding the similarities and differences between them. Click here to see them for yourself!
