Understanding the difference between being "Selfish" and being "Selfless" and Cleaning the Beach

Cleaning the Beach was Good
by Torrey

I thought cleaning the beach was cool. I think cleaning the beach is good. I think cleaning the beach is good because it helps the community.

I pik up garbig and I carey the garbg bag. We found bear bottles and plastic. I think cleaning the beach is good for the community.

I think it was a good idea to go to clean the beach. It is nice for the other people that go there.

My job was to write down everything that the team found on the beach. We found a lot of stuff like plastic and Ribbon. Some of the things we found were gross like ciggoriattes. Claire, Ismael, and Mariah were on my team and more people.

We don't want the world to build up high with garbade. If you do that it means every kind of garbade is going to build up in the world. People can help the environment more and through all there garbade away.

We did a beach sweep so people would enjoy the beach. It was important to clean the beach because if no one cleaned the beach then the chemicals from the trash would get into the water and when we drink the water we might get sick

I had to pick up trash and put it in the bag. The people that were in my group were: Brittany, Ismael and Mariha. We mostly found sigarett buts.

So next time you go to the beach or anywhere that has trash pic it up so it doesn't get into the water and so we don't drink it.

I thought the beach sweep was spectackuler, because I help the common good. It was fun to help the common good. Common good means helping the community.

When our third grade classes went to the beach, we found piles and piles of glass. We also found cans, bottels, and one wach. Levi and Camren were in my group.

I think people should take care of our beaches because it's less work for the next person who comes along. I think they would want to be swimming instead of cleaning the beach. People should pick up trash or litter or pretty soon our world is going to be nasty. So if you see trash and it's in your reach pick it up.
