Hi Everyone!
The holidays are over and now it is back to school again. Hope you had a restful time. For this week's journal writing, I would like you to reflect on a coming global event : Earth Hour.
This year, Singapore is participating in this global effort. To learn more about this event, you can visit these websites:Earth Hour Official Site ~ http://www.earthhour.org/Singapore ~ http://www.earthhour.sg/60/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkq7Zady4IQhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkA-2Mg181k
Here are some questions to help you:
1. What is Earth Hour?
2. When is it held this year?
3. Why do you think people are organising this event?
4. What will everyone be doing during Earth Hour?
5. What other activities can you organise with your family and friends during Earth Hour?
I would love to read your comments.
Cheers,
Ms Lee

ReplyDeleteEarth Hour is an international event which takes place at the end of March each year. Participants in Earth Hour are encouraged to turn all of their nonessential lights off for one hour, starting at 8:00 PM. The event is designed to draw attention to the issue of wasted electricity, and to point out that small actions can make a significant difference in electricity consumption. Earth Hour also coincides with National Dark Sky Week in the United States, a week when people take action against light pollution by turning off extraneous lights.Earth hour is held at 28th March 2009 this year.We can try to cut down the papers we use everyday on that day.The Earth is facing

ReplyDeleteDid You manage to see the stars outdoor? Go to the library to read more about them. Get books on astronomy and share with your classmates any new facts you 've learnt.
