Thinking About the Environment this Spring

I love incorporating “What would you do?” writing into student lessons.  They really enjoy answering these kind of questions.  The Spring printable above focuses on the environment and planting trees.  

Students will answer the question:  “Would you rather actually plant trees to help the environment, or donate money?  Why?”  There is also a place for students to illustrate their writing and draw a Spring picture in the box on the handout.
