Endangered Animals and Environmental Hereos Reuse/Recycle (Step 3)
May 19 2016
Students improved recycling in the classroom encouraging "reduce' and "reuse" before recycling.
Summary
Using information from the RecycleWorks website, students labelled the classroom trash bins and recycling bin. Students now know what gets recycled and what gets landfilled. Additionnally, the recycling bin is adjacent to the garbage bin to reduce contamination of the recycling bin. Students are using both sides of paper before recycling and more students are bringing reusable water bottles.
