Find Your Footprint



We all change the Earth with the stuff that we buy, use, and throw away. This is called our human footprint. How your footprint changes the Earth is up to you.  Teachers, get your students involved and enter your K - 6th grade classroom's best idea to reduce your footprint for a chance to win awesome prizes for your school and classroom.

To enter, pick a theme—Save Water, Reduce Waste, or Save Energy—that your class would like to address. Write a short description of your proposal.  Illustrate your proposal, using one of the following formats:  1—take a photograph, 2—make a poster, 3—shoot a video, OR 4—write an essay.

The grand prize includes five interactive whiteboards, five sets of ActivExpression learner response systems by Promethean, $1,000 of National Geographic gifts, and thirty subscriptions to National Geographic Kids magazine for your school.

The contest is open Kindergarten through sixth grade teachers at a public or private school who enter the
contest on behalf of his/her class.

Entries must be received by December 3, 2010.  Enter here.
