Day 24

So, as I was so HARSHLY asked by Rumpolo, I finished and brought in the Environmental Survey. It was a simple selection of questions that were fairly simple and to the point. It's just an easy way to collect some data. With this info, i should be able to create some kind of histogram or chart to show the data. About the idea that I had about visiting different levels of children, I don't think it's possible because most schools apparently are very unfriendly. With or without the note, I wont be able to survey the children directly. Maybe I can ask a friend's younger brother or sister to help me give it to his class.

I should be able to make multiple copies of the survey and distribute to Rumpolo's biology classes. I wanted to give it out to my WISE class but I believe there is a workshop this Wednesday so maybe I'll wait till the next Wednesday but that wouldn't be very convenient.

I gathered more pictures on my camera today of pollution in our everyday lives. I should have an okay collection by the end of this project.

Note to self: speak to Ms. Gamba about taking one of the days of regular WISE class to teach the class about environmental science. Perhaps I can take all the most important issue and put it into one HUGE. FAST. crash course. And, if I keep forgetting to hunt her down and ask her for permission, maybe she'll read this and give me an answer. lol.

Maybe I should start on the brochures soon, it might be helpful during the crash courses? I also needed to talk to the journalism teacher about possibly getting an article published in ARGUS, Midwood's school newspaper, about the topic, hoping to raise awareness.

Oy. Too much to do.
