Recycled Superheroes

Today was a busy day! We had our student recognition ceremony and we celebrated Earth Day. We had the opportunity to dress up as "Recycled Superheroes" ...
... and our read aloud during Readers Workshop was Why Should I Recycle?, written by Jen Green and illustrated by Mike Gordon. We also made cool little bracelets out of can tabs and ribbon.





Then we reused plastic gallon bottles as our bunny baskets for our afternoon math egg hunt.How do you conserve, reduce, reuse, or recycle?
