Deforestation

This week I posed a question to my students:  “Is Deforestation and Issue Kids should Worry About?”  We learned very many interesting and important facts about deforestation and the causes and effects of the destruction of the rain forests.

What is Deforestation?

Sustainable Forest Management!

Deforestation is a complex issue that can not simply be solved with one single answer.  My students have been researching, and building prior knowledge about rainforest and deforestation to create an opinioned based writing that is supported by facts.  We hope you enjoy reading them and will come visit their blogs and leave a comment.
