I am back! I have been away for a while, although I have been stopping in periodically to see how you guys were doing. I am a teacher living in Japan and this site has made my life so much easier.

Earth Day Sudoku
This is based off of a puzzle that I saw on the internet, but it had a poor black and white design and contained misspellings. I had my students cut out the pictures and paste them in the empty squares, but you could have them write in the name instead. I hope you like it!
