THE ENVIRONMENT

In my class 612 we are learning about the word sustainability. I think that it means all of the elements that people like us really need. We had made a chart about our most important elements which were food, water, energy, shelter, and getting rid of the waste.We had this person, Ms. Baker who came to our school and she had worked at other schools and she helped us with learning about these things. We also have been learning about the 5 W's which are What, Were, Who, When, and Why. All of these things are to show about our environment. Lastly we have been paired up into groups presently to create filters to try and clean our waters. Our materials were things that can be used to make the water cleaner and smell better. And that's what we have been learning in my class : THE ENVIRONMENT!

sustainability

At class 612, we learned about the sustainability. The sustainability means to maintain a healthy environment for everybody and everything as we can . Also, it is for air, energy, water, food etc. Mr. Damon was making it because we have to try to save what is left of world.

Problems we face

We in 612 are going to talk to you about sustainability. Sustainability is to maintain a healthy environment for a long period of time.We hope to bring this to the attention of our readers.
We hope to prevent anything bad in the future.

sustainability

In class we have been learning about sustainability and what it means. Today, Wednesday the 26th I did a sustainability worksheet and noticed that they are growing more trees but still are knocking down forest. We also did pie charts on a video we watched. I did a pie chart on food and I had to show on the pie chart how many people were always hungry, how many people were sometimes hungry, and how many people were never hungry. We also read articles for examples of sustainability. We read an article about reusable bags and how they have a high level of lead in them. Over the past few weeks we have been learning about sustainability.

sustainability/the 5 W's

My class (612) are studying the environment so that we can make it a nice and sustainable environment. We are doing this in the Secondary School for Journalism in Mr.Damon's class room. This is happening currently. Why we are doing this is because we want to keep a healthy environment.

What We're Doing

Class 612 or "The Helping Hands" are studying the environment and how can we keep it a sustainable environment. This is happening in our ELA room at the Secondary School for Journalism. This event is going on currently - mainly every day. We are doing this so we can keep a healthy and clean environment so we could live for very long. Another reason why we are doing this is because we want to keep the parts left of our world very safe.
