First Grade Science Choice Board (Week of April 20th)

Reading: Earth Day

Each year, April 22 is celebrated as Earth Day. On Earth Day, events around the world are used to help teach people how they can help our planet. It has been reported that over 1 billion people do something on or around Earth Day each year in an effort to help the environment.

When was Earth Day first celebrated?

Earth Day was first celebrated on April 22, in 1970. It began when the Senator from Wisconsin, Gaylord Nelson, suggested that April 22 be used for an environment education day. It's estimated that around 20 million people in the United States participated that first day. Many people consider this day to mark the beginning of the modern environmental movement.

Earth Day Goes World Wide

Twenty years after the first Earth Day, on April 22, 1990, the entire world joined in on the environmental activity. Around 200 million people from 141 different countries participated in some way.

What can you do on Earth Day? The best thing you can do on Earth Day is to get out there and do some actual work on helping to improve our environment. Here are a few ideas you can use for your family, class, or school. If you are a kid, be sure to check with your teacher and parents before you do anything and hopefully get them involved too!

Pick up trash - This doesn't sound fun, but it can have an immediate impact on the environment around you. Get some trash bags and gloves and go clean up.

Plant trees - A great way to help our earth is to plant trees. Trees help turn carbon dioxide into oxygen in a process called photosynthesis.

Plant a vegetable garden - This one probably works best at home. Get your parents and ask them to help you plant a vegetable garden. By eating food you grow at home, you help the environment in many ways. It doesn't take any gasoline to transport your vegetables from your backyard into your kitchen!

Use reusable bags - Use reusable shopping bags when going to the store.

Save energy - There are lots of ways to save energy around your house. You can lower the thermostat in the winter or

raise it in the summer. You can make sure to turn off the TV, computer, and lights when you leave a room. You could

even watch less TV and play less video games and go play outside instead.

Writing Assignment:

DIY Milk Carton Bird Feeder: What you need:

▪ half gallon milk or juice carton with cap, washed out and dried

▪ sharp knife (to be used by an adult)

▪ paint stir stick or dowel/rod

▪ twine or string

▪ wild bird seed

What you do:

1. Make a cut in the corner of the milk carton about 2-3 inches from the bottom. Cut out about 1 inch from the corner in each direction. Repeat on the

opposite corner.

2. Let your child press inward on the cut to create a triangle punch in the milk carton. This is where the bird feed will be added and where the birds

will eat from.

3. Add a small 1 inch cut on either side of the milk carton about 1 inch from the bottom to slide the stir stick in. Slide the stir stick in on one side and

out the other. Make sure each side is sticking out evenly. This will be the bird’s perch so they can sit and eat the seed.

4. Using the knife, punch a hole at the top of the milk carton and let your child thread through some twine or string. The length you’ll cut it depends

on the place you’re hanging the feeder from.

5. Let your child add the bird feed in. Make sure to fill it to the opening line so that the birds have access and can see the bird feed. When filling you

can either fill from the sides as we’re doing or get a funnel and fill from the spout at the top. Expect some spillage.

6. Hang the bird feeder where it will be easy to watch the birds that come to eat.

Place it about 10 feet from plants such as evergreens or dense shrubs that can provide birds with easily accessible cover from predators. But don’t

place the feeder closer than 10 feet to avoid giving neighborhood cats a hiding place from which they can wait to ambush visiting birds. Also try to

choose a spot that is sheltered from winter winds.

Great Work!! You are amazing!!
