Teddy Bear Loves Science and Sustainability
Another reason to explore science/sustainability with kids. What is the tape on the K bear's eyes? Not cataracts...
 |
| Each K student has a Teddy Bear to help her or him learn empathy. Empathetic people try to live in a sustainable manner.. They clothe, house, and nurture their bears. What's the tape on this K bear's eyes? Science goggles.. (We study chemistry...students learn that some chemicals are good for you, some are bad, and some are meh. And that some should stay out of your eyes!) |
