"Let's Go Green!" Mrs. Dillinger's Grade 6 Science  How did we get here? What can we do? My final project is put together in 4 categories listed to the right of this main page. Each category provides a component which I will be using with the students throughout the conservation unit. The categories are as follows:  1**__. Introduction for Students:__**  Found on this page. I like to begin a new unit with something to spark the students' interest. The youtube video will be the "conversation starter" for discussing the need for conservation. 2. **__Going Green Survey (google docs.)__** We will assess the current level of conservation practiced by the students in their homes. This provides information that we can analyze and graph (adding math concepts to the project). 3. **__Billion Acts of Green__** Students will access the website and make a personal/family pledge. As a class we will discuss options for the school and create a school pledge to work on as part of our science class. Throughout the unit, we will use digital technology to show evidence of our pledge completion both at home and at school. 4. **__ePals__** I have signed my classes up to participate in ePals. The students will be creating a conservation themed video utilizing the school's video equipment. The best videos will be uploaded to ePals. As an extention activity (depending on time) I would like to sign up to work on the Nat Geo Global Warming project. I am hoping to enlist the collaboration of another class from around the world to work on this project with us. (With the current time constraints, I feel this portion will be better suited for next fall.) ﻿ Introduction for Students media type="youtube" key="24_gqlIURMs" width="226" height="222" align="center"
