Reading, writing & saving the planet
Article Abstract:
Caterbury Woods Elementary School instructor Josie Mani believes that teachers should have time to discuss with their students environmental issues. Through this, children will learn to become caring and thoughtful citizens even at a young age and at the same time, provide the simple solutions to some environmental problems. Furthermore, environmental classroom discussions can be a way for children to develop their problem-solving and interpersonal skills.
