Recycle

Hello Families!
Now with the Fall winds blowing the leaves and other things around, it is time to be mindful of keeping our school clean! We are excited to give the children an opportunity to be responsible and help keep our environment looking good! We will teach the children how to recycle and how to reuse items so we do not add extra waste to our Earth.

Here is a Peek to our Week!
Monday- We will call this our Earth Day as we will walk around our school and pick up trash to keep our school looking neat and clean!
Tuesday- We will reinforce this same principle and clean up inside the school and our classroom.
Wednesday- We will make creative collages out of recycled materials!
Thursday- We will have fun making some beautiful water bottle vases.
Friday- We will take a mini- field trip to the Goodwill store. If you have any old clothes or items to be donated, please bring them in so we can bring them to the store. Make sure, it is a few items so the children can easily carry them.

Vocabulary will include these words: disposable, Goodwill, used, cans, metal, newspaper, yard, recycle symbol, Spring cleaning, tote bag, leftovers, plastic containers, empty/full, recycle bin, compost, new, glass.

Show and Tell
Please have your child bring in a recycle item to talk about. We like items that relate to the theme. If you need an idea, just refer to the vocab words. Thanks for making Show and Tell a meaningful conversational experience!
