In an effort to help both teachers and parents find fun and creative environmental activities to use to educate their children, Ashley Rubio our Environmental Education Specialist has created several fun projects for you to use.
As always, should you want her to come to your class to work with your students she will make every effort to assist you. We felt this was a way for teachers and parents alike to enjoy these activities with their students and children at their leisure.
Mrs. Rubio will continue to add to these project as she develops them so be sure to return to see what new ideas she has to share with you. If you need further directions or help, Mrs. Rubio can be reached at 706-973-9842.
