Check as a class.
Alfie:
Hi, Lions.
This is Alfie from the Squirrels.
I think The small seeds is an excellent story.
It's interesting and inspirational.
My favourite part of the story is when you see all the trees in Kenya at the end.
It makes me very happy.
I think life is better in the village now because people can grow food for their families and there is water in the stream.
Can one person make a difference to the environment?
Yes, of course.
Everybody can make a difference.
Sometimes the difference is big and sometimes it's small.
So, What does he think of the story?
Alfie thinks life is better in the village now
because
people can grow food for their families and
there is water in the stream.
Here are some great ways that kids can help protect the environment.
