In honor of Earth Day, we took this week to finish up our unit on plants and learn about ways we can keep the earth clean and healthy. After reading books about the 3Rs- recycling, reducing, and reusing- we created an anchor chart together about how we can care for our planet. We also made earth books that we hung around the classroom to remind us how important is to take good care of our one and only home!
On Friday, we got together with our Big Friends and did an activity together centered around ways we can reduce, reuse, and recycle materials. We also took some time to present our at-home recycling projects to the class.
Check out how each of us reused or recycled something to make something new!
