MTMS Science Classes Enjoy

An Earth Day Field Day

MANCHESTER – The Manchester Township Middle School science classes were able to get outside in the sunshine and fi nally enjoy the Earth Day Field Day that was rained out a few weeks ago!

Classes were divided into teams and tackled fun Earth Day challenges and games that incorporated important lessons or themes about Earth Day.

Games included Recycling Can Jam, Toss the Trash Cornhole, Endangered Species

Musical Chairs, and more. The games, such as the Obstacle Course, addressed those environmental issues that the Earth is facing that are natural and manmade. The lessons focused on how students can help fi x these problems by working together to make a positive change. In order to simulate how important, but challenging it is, students spent their time reinforcing the importance of taking care of our Earth while having fun.
