This year we will be celebrating Earth Day with an Earth Day Parade. On Thursday students may wear a white, blue, or green shirt with their uniform pants. Students are encouraged to create a costume using only recycled items.
Costume ideas [From Planet Pals.com] include:
- Make the Recycle Bin Costumes
- Make a PLANET PALS-- such as Earthman, Litterbug, Crush the Can.
- Be a recycle sign by drawing the recycle symbol on two large cards attached with string and worn over the shoulder
- Cover a bag with plastic bottles and or cans glued to it, cut a hole to go over your head-carry a sign that says "Recycle me", "Recycle Plastic" or "Recycle Cans" You can also wear a headband with bottle caps glued to it.
- Cover a box with Newspaper, cut a hole to go over your head, and 2 holes on the side for your arms-carry a sign that says "Recycle me" or "Recycle Paper".
- Create a headband or hat with recycled items.
Please be sure that your child is able to put their costumes on independently. Students will march around the school in our Earth Day Parade on April 21, 2011.
