Hello everyone. Hope you all had some time to relax over the holidays!
Remember Earth Hour on the 28th March? Well, this week Earth Day is celebrated around the world on Wednesday 22nd April!
The theme this year is “Climate Action” – this was in the news a lot last year mainly thanks to a teenager called Greta Thunberg from Sweden.
Here are some ideas to help you celebrate Earth Day at home:
- Make an acrostic poem using the words – EARTH DAY.
You can try to come up with some other words which begin with these letters or make up some different sentences.
- Create your own Earth collage using old magazines or tissue paper.
- Draw and colour in Earth yourself.
- You can add the handprints if you like to symbolise that we are looking after the Earth.
Use a paper plate for the circle shape or borrow a plate from your kitchen.
Challenge:
Enter the Pinewood School Cake Competition with a design based around Earth Day!!
(I might just have to give it a go myself now!) 
Good Luck
Linda.
