We Celebrated Earth Hour! (Also, Any Questions?)

Thank you to our Blog Buddies, who shared various ways they observed Earth Hour, including reading by candlelight and making shadow puppets! Please see their comments below, under the March 24 post.

Here's how some of our first-grade Green Team members spent the hour on Saturday night:

We turned our lights off, but my Mom was watching TV, so I watched with her. ~Bubba
I went to sleep, so I just had all the lights off. ~Dinosaur
I was somewhere else, so all the lights in our house were turned off! ~Dog
We turned most of the lights off, and I played Ghost in the Graveyard with my sister. ~Doodle Monkey
I turned off my bedroom lights. ~Mum
We only kept a light in the kitchen and in the laundry room on. ~Cars
We turned off two lights. ~Hammer

Several second-grade Green Team members participated as well:

We turned every light except the TV off. ~Bob the Builder
We forgot, until a friend called me, then I turned off the lights in my room, in the hallway, and the stairs. ~Horse Girl
We kept turning our X-Box off and on, and off and on! We had all the other lights off. ~Destroyer
I went to bed and turned most of the lights off, except the one I use as a night light. ~65KTM

Right now, we're reading books on saving water, recycling, saving energy and caring for our environment. We should have some good tips for our readers soon.

Meanwhile, do any of you have questions about any environmental topic that we can try to answer for you? We have a lot of books we can use for research! Thanks again for taking time to be our Blog Buddies!
