Here's what you get with the highly acclaimed GREEN Schools kit:
An Idea Book - This newly revised book contains numerous great ideas for many environmental projects. A Program Resource Manual - This addition to the kit explains how to utilize the program and guides teachers with information and ideas for doing environmental projects in their classroom and school.
An Environmental Trophy - It is given out to the participating students (usually a class) each time a project is completed. - The trophy is reused over and over again.
An Environmental Log Book - It contains 25 blank formatted log or project pages for students to record and autograph each time a project is done. Obtain more pages here. - Room is provided on the project pages for an illustration and a project description. - In many schools, students read the descriptions over the public address system to announce a project to the entire school.
A Hallway Progress Chart - The chart can be coloured as projects are done. - The titles of projects can be written on the chart along with the class responsible. - The chart acts like a thermometer to illustrate the progress towards the goal of 100 projects completed.
A Set of 100 Door Tags - They are given out to a class each time a project is added to the logbook. - They are posted (perhaps on a classroom door). - The 'doortags' also can be used as postcards. - They can be sent out when the school becomes a green school.
A Set of Environmental Certificates - There are four certificates in the new registration kit. - They allow schools to celebrate interim levels of achievement: - BRONZE at 20 projects, - SILVER at 40 projects, and - GOLD at 60 projects. - Also enclosed is the GREEN School certificate for completing the 100th project.
An Inflatable SEEDS Earth Ball - This is a 16 inch (40 cm) diameter inflatable ball. - It can be suspended from the ceiling to be part of the special area in the school where your log book is put on display.
REQUEST LATER - A Large GREEN Schools Banner - This is a beautiful green banner which can be displayed in a place of honour in the school. - It is not sent in the GREEN Schools kit, but held by the SEEDS Foundation in anticipation of the school's success in logging projects. - Students or staff get in touch with SEEDS once 75 or more projects have been recorded. The banner is then sent along with letters of congratulations.
