Earth Day is Every Day

We read Schim Schimmel's book "Dear Children of the Earth: A letter from Home" prior to Earth Day.  This book is a beautiful book about how Mother Earth needs help from the Children of Earth to help protect, care and love her and our brother and sister animals.  After we read this book, we discussed how we can help Mother Earth so that she can be a healthy home for future generations.  We decided that Earth Day should be every day if we want to help our home.  We then wrote our own letters to Mother Earth explaining what we are thankful for and how we will strive to protect her.  After we created slides on Keynote with a line from our own letter, we put them together to create this visual letter to our one and only home, Mother Earth!
