        April 22, 2021 is Earth’s Day Celebration around the globe – a day in which we specially honor and give respect to mother earth. This week-long event had created opportunities for self-reflection on our ways and actions toward the environment. How can we save and protect our Earth? What can you contribute for the betterment of our planet? What are the things that I do that endangers our habitat? These are the questions that we would like our learners to ponder on as they do the activities in this essential celebration. Weeks prior to this day, Science teachers at Baclaran Elementary School had actively participated through informing and monitoring their respective learners on the activities. Children from Grades 1, 2 and 3 made eco-friendly headdress and creative poster and slogan with inspirational messages while Grade 4 students shared their pledge onto taking up space in preserving and conserving our habitat. Grades 5 and 6 learners, on the other hand, demonstrated the importance of 5Rs through a model made up of recyclable objects. A video compilation of the works of the learners was then post on our Facebook school page and shared by the teachers, students, and parents.

          This activity is not only school-based for we also managed to generate our own Facebook Profile Frame which was used division-wide, credits to our computer-savvy colleague, Mr. Teddy C. Sarmiento. The collaborative effort of the school community headed by our supportive school head, Ma. Carina L. Bautista, hopefully made a lasting impact and fuel positive changes and environmental awareness.
