Final Project Idea

I talked with two members of the class from the other groups and we were thinking of collaborating to make a lesson plan for elementary level children. We want to inform then/quiz them on their knowledge of the environment, global warming, etc. Also, we would do a little project with them that they could display in their class or take home. I think it is really important to educate children about their carbon footprint as soon as possible so that they can grow up with the knowledge of how to be environmentally friendly citizens.

I found this site which I think could be very helpful resource in creating our lesson plan: http://climate.nasa.gov/kids/index.cfm

Stan Cherincoff is the guy you want to talk too. He runs some out reach to local schools, although I am not sure weather it is high school or middle school. I am sure he would be a good resource to have.
