Stream of Dreams


   march 1 076
Last week our school participated in the Stream of Dreams
program.  It is Eco-Education with a focus on local Watersheds,
Streams, Rivers and the Ocean.

StrongStart visited Brooklyn Creek earlier in the
week.  We watched the water rushing over the rocks and
read the bulletin boards about the fish that live there.

Back at school we learned about the many fish that
live in our streams, rivers and oceans.  That whatever
we put down our drains effects those fish and other
creatures.

           For inspiration we read Lois Ehlert`s book Fish Eyes.

        Then in just two days every student and staff painted a fish to
                be a reminder to take care of our waterways.

On Saturday a group of parents, staff and students got together to
                 hang the fish on our school fence.
