Adopt-A-Beach

Many of the beaches in Chicago are dirty and in the need some loving care. This is a great project for students to realize the harm that litter causes to environment. Many students will be amazed at the amount of trash that is collected. Working in partnership with the Alliance for the Great Lakes, this project is fun and easy to complete. When teachers are filling out the forms the Alliance for the Great Lakes needs, they have collected data that is great to incorporate into their classroom. Here is the project that has been used successfully in Chicago Public Schools high school classrooms.
