Enviro Challenges: Term 4 Week 5 & Week 6.

 Week 6 - Which Bin?    

As we return to school it’s a great time to recap where we should put all our rubbish! 

Red? (landfill) Yellow?  (recycling) or   Green? (composting)

         

                                                              Video 1: Composting

Video 2: What Can be Recycled?

GAME: Recycle Right! 

1. Watch the 2 videos above about the importance of keeping things out of landfill. 

2. Play the game. What’s your score? Take a snapshot of your score and add it to your slides.

3. Write down 3 things you should NOT put into the yellow recycle bin that were in the game.

4. Find 3 plastic items with a number on the bottom. 

Write down the number and what the item was. 

e.g. #5 - ice cream tub. 

(hint: you’ll have to look REALLY closely as it can be tiny!)
