J1 1st grade students have been learning about people
and inventions that have changed the world. We have studied ocean life
and learned how humans impact our Earth.
We
learned that about 20% of clothing gets reused or recycled. That means
80% gets thrown away and ends up in landfills or oceans.
J1
wants to change this. We will be having a clothing and shoe drive from
April 29 - May 10. Then we will take the items to The North Face store
to their program called Clothes the Loop.
