Going Green Glog!
A glog
, or graphic blog, is an electronic poster.
A glog uses text boxes, pictures, video clips, hyperlinks, audio files,
and animation to communicate information about a topic. You will research your topic related to 5
Ways To Go Green, then use www.edu.glogster.com to create your glog.
You will be given log-in information for
glogster, and design a glog to make a presentation of 5 actions you can do each
day to “Go Green”. You will have time in class to work on it in school. If you require more time, you can use the LMC
after school or at lunch. See the
following page for the rubric. You will be graded on the information you
provide, the design quality of your glog (how it’s organized), and your English
Speaking Skills when you present the glog to the class.
Remember…all it takes to
make a change is to choose to change and do something!
LET’S GO GREEN!

a.
An
Example: One action I will do to go
green is buy locally grown food because it supports the local economy and it
produces less pollution since the food does not have to travel far to get to my
plate. This reduces the amount of carbon toxics from the cars, trucks, etc.
used to transport the food; therefore creating less pollution.
