What if everybody did that?

Dear Mom and Dad:

As the weather gets colder, I am learning to be independent with my clothing items. Please let me zip up my jackets, snow pants, putting on mittens, hats etc. on my own. Not only does it keep my warm but it will help me with my fine motor skills as well! 

Kindergarten is learning what reduce, reuse and recycle means. We read a book called “What if Everybody Did That? This begins our inquiry about “What if…?

We also looked at a video about where our recycling goes and followed a journey of a soda can. Did you know that our recycled waste gets sorted at the center and then it gets turned into new items?

We also talked about where our trash goes. Ask me to tell you where the garbage in our black bins go! We started a science experiment because kindergarten wanted to know what happens to garbage over time. Ask me to tell you about the 4 different jars we are using to see what happens to different items.  

Our beautiful stuff bags need to be returned by Monday November 9. We will reveal all of our beautiful stuff into a big pile and then we will sort the items. (just like at the recycling facility)

We have a whole collection of lids. Did you know that when we recycle our jars, water bottles, juice bottles, the lids do not get recycled? Kindergarten is going to turn these items and reuse them to turn into masterpieces! Check out our photos.

Question of the day: What if everybody reused like kindergarten?

Love,

Kindergarten
