Fifth Grade Hurricane Relief Effort Collects $71 This week our class held a bottle drive. We collected bottles and cans from home and from other classrooms. We will return them to the store. Then we will send the money to the American Red Cross. They will give it to the Hurricane Katrina Relief Effort. ...Emily C. B. I loved collecting bottles. I feel that we all should help the hurricane victims because they lost their homes and memories. A lot of people lost their pets. Animal adoption places are full and trying to give animals away. I feel sorry. ...Jena |

It was fun to collect bottles and take them to our classroom. We had to sort and bag them. I think we will get a lot of money. All the money is going to the Red Cross.

Fifth Grade Bottle Drive for Hurricane Relief The fifth grade Social Studies class will be having a bottle drive this week to help raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. All Onekama elementary students and staff are encouraged to donate refundable bottles to assist in this effort. The bottle drive will begin on Wednesday, September 14 at Onekama Elementary School. The students will finish collecting on Friday, September 16 at 3:30 pm. Refundable bottles can be dropped at Room 434 in the Elementary School. We ask that all returnable items be cleaned before they are brought into the school. As part of the students learning about Social Studies, this project will assist the students in taking action to help citizens in need. We would like to emphasize that this event was generated from the fifth grade students. Please help the victims of the worst natural disaster in the history of the United States and assist our students in this learning experience. Thank you, |
