Please Do Not Idle
After researching facts on-line about the negative ecological and health impacts of car idling pollution, the 4th grade made a bulletin board for the school: “American Idol is Okay, BUT Americans Idling Their Cars Is Not!” (Thanks to Chloë for the great title!)
Next, we thought it was time to tell the world. The day before Spring Break, 12 teams of 4th graders had 30 minutes each to come up with a short commercial encouraging others to idle/pollute less. We pretended that they would be shown during the next Super Bowl! We will share the full length video at our school’s Earth Day assembly in two weeks.
