On Friday, October 16th, the 2009-2010 Super Green Eco Team met for the first time. Suzie and Michele were introduced to 14 energetic and enthusiastic 4th and 5th graders. We all talked about our specific "eco interests" and learned about the goals that this year's eco team was going to work toward.
1. Have organized and productive SGET meetings.
2. Continue the Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle policies PS40 has already implemented.
3. Develop a responsible relationship between SGET member/inspectors and the classrooms for which they are responsible.
4. Work on the Team Up to Clean Up competition
- Brainstorm project ideas
- Vote on ideas and project leaders
- Find partners for projects - Solar One, Lower East Side Ecology Center, etc.
- See projects through to fruition
6. Maintain the PS40 Team Up To Clean Up! blog
7. Maintain the Eco Bulletin Board in the cafeteria
By the end of our meeting, each SGET member was assigned at least two classrooms for which they will be responsible. It was very clear that this team of eco students are going to do great things and make positive changes at PS40 and in the world.
Our next meeting will be on October 30th 2009.
