In response to your email, I know that nature centers usually do not allow
anyone to collect leaves etc. that may be found on the ground. Jim

Subject: [CPS Science]FW: Hypodermic needles on school grounds
Kindra Braunn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> asked me to forward this message to

Tonight in our MINT (new teachers) meeting, a few teachers brought up the
idea of talking children on a "nature walk" to collect leaves for
classifying, graphing, etc., and I warned them all...
Another teacher and I once went on a recycling walk (to collect garbage for
graphing purposes/studying patterns of waste) and one of the students (in a
NICE area of town on Lake Shore Drive) found a hypodermic needle on school
grounds. Needless to say, this led to some very important discussions on
what we pick up, and what we tell teachers about, needles, etc... So, just
a warning for all those going on walks outside, playgrounds, etc...
