Ocean's Day

We will celebrate the World Oceans day next Thursday, June 8th.

As fifth graders are working on oceans and marine animals, why don't we make a promise in order to have better Oceans and to protect the sea animals? 
Meanwhile, here you have a cute video where two children go from their home to places around the world before returning home to tell their friends about the adventure and all they have learned. By the way, the accompanying song of ocean celebration is a parody of Gotye's "Somebody that I used to know"

World Oceans Day is celebrated by millions of people all over the globe! Visit  http://worldoceansday.org

You are the future

Do you remember the Ocean's Day activities in the school on the 7th and 8th of June? We made a small beach in the classroom with different fish species. Then, we had to identify them.

But, as you can imagine,there were more actions all around the world. 

Check out the amazing folks at Oceans day in California. Over 5,000 young people took part in huge beach clean-ups! I love it!
