Description : This project will introduce 3rd and 4th grade students at Harvey Oaks Elementary School to public speaking and concepts developed from the nonprofit Keep Omaha Beautiful. Students choose a topic provided by Keep Omaha Beautiful to research and present at the end of the year. These topics include glass recycling, curbside recycling, household hazardous waste among other topics. While learning how to be environmentally friendly, students are introduced to concepts of speech making and public speaking. UNO students will assist students in the speech making process and provide help doing research. Harvey Oaks students will film a short 30 second Public Service Announcement for Keep Omaha Beautiful on their topics to provide them assistance in marketing the organization.
