Whatever notion they use, no matter how widely used or original, the goal is to get students thinking about the problem and then providing us with their solutions. Teachers are encouraged to discuss environmental topics with their students that will lead the class to focus on solutions to environmental problems. Environmental lessons must be given before initiating a class art or poetry project. The amount of time devoted to classroom activity is determined by each teacher. Entries worked on by the entire class must be no larger than 3 ft.
Teachers are to submit only one entry per class.
In order to receive a participation certificate and next year s program announcement, fill out BOTH labels on the enclosed entry form. Stick the lable entry form to the lower left-hand corner of the back of the poem or poster. If you do not fill out the label, your submission will not be included. It may take few minutes to download. All entries must be received by EPA no later than Friday, March 16, 2001.
