March 2010: Challenge 4

ImageChef.comOne of the questions asked at the end of the September 2009 challenge was:  What topic would you like to write more posts about?  One of the most common answers was:

Environment

There are many different ways to look at this topic and across the world this week, there are many celebration days being held:

So again this week, a wide variety of activities to choose from either as a blogger, commenter or class.

  • Research and write a post including links and images on one of those special days.
  • Join in Earth Hour and write a post about what your family did during that hour.
  • Write a post about activities your family could do while the lights are out for that hour.
  • What do you do at school or at home to help protect the environment?
  • Write a comic strip as a hero wanting to save some aspect of the environment.
  • If 13 or older and with parental permission, create a text to movie at xtranormal about the environment.
  • Your worries regarding the environment – what can you do as a student?
  • Create an animoto about the environment – maybe you worry about the polar bears.  Find images from links on this post.
  • Write a post about an environmental field trip you went on, maybe to the rubbish dump or cleaning up a creek etc.
  • Visit these posts from last year to leave a comment: Priscila from Argentina, Ashley from USA, Abbey from USA, Courtney from USA, Hailey from USA

The challenge last year for Earth Hour can be found here.

  15. Challenge 4 | Fire Alarm

    […] This year for earth hour me and my family did not watch any T.V, we turned off most of our lights played. I think that earth day is a good time to save energy and try to make our planet a bettter place to live. For companies with lots of buildings with lights and they are known world wide, and they turn their lights off for earth hour, it makes people think that they care about the planet and is good for their reputation.

    Hi Miss Wyatt,

    I’m wondering if anyone is having difficulty with the comic strip maker? My students have made several and keep trying to email their creations at the end, but none of them seem to be reaching me. I know you have to wait quite a bit to make sure it goes through, but I have watched some through this process and still no comic! Are we the only ones experiencing this? Does anyone have a trick to getting the link sent to themselves so it can be added to a post? Thanks for any help!

    1. Miss W.

      Mrs Braidwood,
      Which comic strip maker are you using? I have a list of some on my grade 8-10 blog. Look on the sidebar under comics.

      1. Mrs. Braidwood

        I was using the artisancam one that was linked above. I’ll check the other ones listed on your 8-10 blog. Thanks!

  55. Blogging Challenge 4 | Ariana's Blog

    […] Challenge 4 of the Student Blogging Challenge asked for participants to explain what they did to help the environment. For my part, I volunteer at a salmon hatchery and helped to start the Green Team at my school. This past summer, I worked at a camp run by Metro Vancouver Parks to introduce youth to parks and teach them about environmental stewardship. I have found the beauty in my woods and I hope you find the beauty in your own landscape, too, wherever you live. […]
