In celebration of Earth Day, our young reporters from the Elementary Newspaper Club stepped outside the classroom and into nature.

Armed with their curiosity, creativity, and iPads, these wonderful journalists explored the outdoors to listen, observe, and report, not as themselves, but as voices of nature.

Through interviews, photos, video clips, and short articles, they brought life and personality to the world around us, reminding us all to care more deeply for our planet.

We hope you enjoy their powerful messages and Earth Day stories!

Because sometimes the smallest voices say the biggest things.

Follow these simple rules to change the nature:

• Water your plants every day.

• Do not trespass a protected area

• Plant at least one plant each day

• Don’t litter in a natural area

Every bloom is a reminder that beauty takes time.

• Butterflies taste with their feet

• Dolphins have names for each other

• Antarctica is an extreme continent

• The largest living organism is a fungus

• Flamingos get their color from their diet

• Earth was once thought to be a perfect sphere, but it's not

• Trees can talk secretly

Hi! I'm Ernesto! I'm in fifth grade. How did I find this? Well, my teacher told everyone to open Padlet on their computers to post a prayer, and when I opened the homepage, I saw a folder called "Newspaper Club," and I remembered EVERYTHING from the past, but before going in, I had to write the sentence, so I did, and well, it went well. A few days later, I remembered the Padlet, so I went into it and saw ALL the posts. I thought it had been deleted, but it was still there. I wanted to write something, and this whole message is what I wanted to write. Thanks for reading this.
