DON'T TRASH IT!



Parents,

We have just started a unit on recycling! For the next few weeks your child will be learning the importance of recycling and how it benefits our earth! Recycling is a part of our Science TEKS!




At home this week I would like for you to share with your child what you do to recycle. If you do not usually recycle, you should start now! Discuss how you can set up your own little recycle bin at your house. You might also help your child make separate bins at your own house! A little tip: You can use old boxes and label them! (Please do not spend any money on this)

Here are a few fun packed websites for you to visit with your child:

  • Recycle Zone is a super fun place to learn all about recycling! Your child will love this one! It is teacher, parent, and child friendly. It features a fun zone, an activity zone, an info zone, and a recycler zone. Feel free to visit the teacher zone as well. This website will probably keep your child busy for hours. It is so much fun and is full of information on recycling! What more could you ask for!



  • Recycle Fun (DCC Kids) is yet another super fun place where your child can learn about recycling. On this website you and your child can play games, make things, find other links, and do all kinds of stuff! I really encourage you to check this site out! It is so full of useful information that is fun too! This website even has jokes for your child about recycling!



  • Recycle City is a great site that features games, activities, facts, and graphics for your and your child. The facts page is full of fun facts to read to your child!







If you have any questions or comments feel free to leave me comments on my blog! I will get back to them ASAP!
