The Environmental Club Of Sycamore
Welcome to the ECOS home page!.
Earlier this year, fourth grade students at Sycamore School in Indianapolis started an environmental club. The club's goals include helping Sycamore students learn about important environmental issues and getting ECOS members more involved in "hands on" projects that help the environment. Sycamore spanish teacher Senora Myriam Thompson is the club sponsor and fourth grade teacher Ms. Susan Vieth is co-sponsor.
As you explore our Web page, you'll also see that many ECOS projects creatively combine ways for students to help the environment while improving their Spanish language skills. Excelente! Si?
We'll be using our Web page to showcase the exciting projects that club members are working on. Since many of these projects will be "in progress", we'll also use this site to help organize project activities and deadlines. We hope that you'll visit the ECOS Web page often to see what we're doing!
