In the past few years I have taught students from Haiti, Korea, Nigeria, Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Belize. Many of my students this year were born in these countries or are first generation Americans. Some come from cities but many come from rural villages where they were able to live among and care for the animals and plants that are native to their countries. When I explained where some of our school supplies came from (paper in particular) and how some of Earth's resources are being depleted daily they expressed a sincere concern. We began to use the same sheets of paper for more than one assignment and to recycle paper and bottles in the classroom. They shared how they are also recycling at home with items such as cans, newspapers and clothing. They even wanted to take home their leftover school lunches.
