EARTH DAY ACTIVITIES FOR KIDS

Earth Day is celebrated around the world every April 22nd.  Why not have your students showcase their knowledge about the 3 R’s: reduce, reuse and recycle? Have them do this research project and make lap books. Then put them on display for the whole school to see! It's a perfect activity for students in Grades 3-6.

There is enough information and facts for students to complete the activity using only the printable pages or they can do more extensive research. Once the lap books are completed, students can share the information with their peers or with younger students such as reading buddies.  Best of all, this Earth Day project involves no teacher prep. I call that a big win! 👏👏👏

Happy Earth Day!  🌏 💙

How to Entertain Bored Kids for FREE

If your kids are stuck inside (like during the Covid-19 pandemic) or they aren't able to play with their friends, why not have them do something that's so simple and so easy?  Write a friendly letter.  It could be to grandma, the neighbour or ... well, just about anybody!

These FREE FRIENDLY LETTER TEMPLATES are perfect for this.

You might even be able to sneak in a little bit of education by using the labeled printable that shows the parts of a friendly letter! 😉 

Just remember, your kids being stuck inside won't last forever!  So, take a deep breath. Embrace it.  (And if all else fails, dig out your secret stash of chocolate!  For you - not the kids!  😂)

Happy letter writing!
