technology resources

Earth Day in December? A look at what we are doing in tech.

Green is in.

This week, in 6th grade Ms. Yocus's 6th graders have been exploring climate change through an interactive educational website, called planet green game. See: http://www.planetgreengame.com/

Students are asked to solve global warming problems in a variety of settings, a school, fuel station, a construction site, a house, and even confront city hall.

For a list of things you can do to curb your own carbon emissions (download the attachment 10 things).

In 7th grade Sharon Churchwell and Dr. Donna Mau are researching renewable resources. Students are asked to come up with sustainable solutions for transportation. So far they identified multiple alternative fuels and would like to design an exhibit for the museum of science and industry highlighting their findings.

Recycle Your Ink Cartridges!

If anyone has any empty ink cartridges at home and would like to contribute them to the Lincoln Hall main office for recycling, we will have a box in the office. The school gets money for them. Hoorah!
