The equinox is when the entire earth recieves the exact same ammount of day and night. When the earth is facing the sun sideways, the equinox occurs. The equinox occurs twice a year, once in the spring, and once in the fall.

Continued Student Success Stories

The kids who wrote the success stories had a lot of work to do. They were able to collect 41.4 pounds of cigarette butts in one day! Our school could probably do something simalar. Even a fraction of the ammount of toxin that they removed would help our enviroment immensley. They were able to remove 30363mg of toxin from their enviroment.
Students also did a graffiti cleanup. They went down town to wash off all of the graffiti that was on the buildings. We do not have as much of a graffiti problem in our town, but it would be bennificial if a place like Lansing cleaned up. The students consulted an expert with graffiti removal for help. The town took a change for the greener because of these students' actions.

We can use models to prove hypothesis. We can make observations based on information received by outside sources. We can have fun and test at the same time. We can access information from the past that may help our testing and results. We can use scientific resources to improve our experiments.

I liked that the students were able to help out by cleaning up their towns.
I wish that people would take the initiative and help with the enviroment. I did not think that the grafiti cleanup helped with the enviroment, and Ithink that the work could have been used in better ways.
