Care of the Environment

Care of the Environment

Care of the environment plays a crucial role in our development. Maintaining a clean and orderly classroom is so important as it teaches children how to take care of the space around them, which then internalizes as appreciation for one’s environment. When children feel involved, they begin to understand they are part of a larger community, which builds on self-worth and empathy. (Please click for more information and the full photos.)

Planting

The children helped to beautify and care for our playground by planting a variety of flowers in the planters. They worked together to dig holes in the soil, then placed small seedlings into the holes. They spread soil around the planters, and then watered the flowers. (Please click for more information.)

Caring For Plants

The children learn to take pride and responsibility in their Care of the Environment. One of the activities to promote this is caring for plants: learning how much water they need, watering, and gently dusting or misting their leaves.
