Congratulations to the children for doing such a wonderful job at Friday's assembly! They enjoyed singing songs related to our unit 'Reduce, Reuse, Recycle !' and have a better understanding of the 3 R's. We read a story and discovered that there is actually a 4th R; we can also repair items before throwing them away! This week we have discovered what happens to the trash once it gets to the landfill and next week we will go and find out what happened to the trash we buried a few months back. This week we were busy making cards from recycled paper and from old cards. The children made beautiful cards and wrote a summary on how they had saved the environment by making homemade cards! Can you guess how they helped save the environment??
