Welcome


Welcome to the Montessori Summer Program 2008. Montessori is offering a unique summer program to enable students to recover credits through a project based learning experience. This year we will be examining our relationship with the world around us through the lens of our human footprint. Students will explore the use of resources, while measuring today's choices against tomorrow's costs. Students will help to direct the focus of study throughout the two-week period, and togther we will ask essential questions, research information and create understandings. We hope to enable students to master depth in content areas so that they will be resources to their cohort in September. This program is not only about credit recovery, but also developing a new vision of ourselves as learners, and citizens of the world.

If i had 24hours to live and I would have tell someone about the 11thhour. I would tell them that the economy and the people are destroying the earth by the pollution. Try to not litter and keep from polluting the air.

Changes that I could make to change either the community,the world, and in myself is that I would stop littering. I could make a change in the community by talking to people in the untied powers.The world idk about because it takes more than one person to change the world.

I plan to stop using aresol hair spray it will help the global warming helping the ozone layer. Unplug the cellerphone charger, stop using the air condition, turn the lights off, and turn off the computer to save electricity. Also stop littereing gum wrapper around. Walk to the store instead of using the car.

If i had to tell someone about the 11th hour I would tell them that global warming is a big issue. The actions that I do affect others. Animals are losing a habitat to live in. Human are losing resources. Media and technolgy has made us adapt to a new nature to depend on new products then depend on ourselves. Its really chocking to know the things that happen in the world. Like the people that dump garbage into the ocean destroys the environment. With global warming it also affects us, being open and attracted to harmful diseases and other bad things.

if i only had 24 hours to live the person i would talk to the goverment.I will tell them that they need to change whats going on in the world before it comes to an end. i would tell them to watch the movie for themselves because thats thats the only way it would persue them to make a change of how our life style is today.



after watching that movie i learned that we have to better ourselves to save our enviroment. so i decided to help out the world by not littering , saving electricity , and planting more plants. the warning that i would like to pass on is stop destroying our atmosphere!!
