Recycling in Our Towns

Today, we made maps of towns that were responsible with their trash and had lots of ways to reuse and recycle materials. We worked both individually and in groups. Here are some reflections from working in groups:

"Katie made the grass and she made the pond too" - Stefiny

"The trash in the water and there's a net to catch the trash in the water and there's garbage cans and there's a tree. There's a clean island" - Ozair

"I made this because we need a water thing and then I made a door and I made a little fish so he can get out and there's a thing for people to look at him" - London

"I made a house and I made a book" - Zion

"I made a bus right there on the road and I made a hotel and I made the recycling with a can recycling plastic bottles" - Zy'he

"I made a park and a swing and a recycle and a basketball and a tree" - Mihanna

"I made a dumpster truck...a recycling truck and a house" - Emir

"So me and Kat made us walking the dog and it's messy and we made fish and a wall so the trash would be over here so don't be putting your trash in the water anyways. There's a sign that says NO Littering and ice cream and we made a recycling place" - Camryn and Kat

"I noticed that the first group and the third group had something similar. Ozair drew a net in the water to catch the trash. The third group built a wall to keep the trash from going to where the animals were." - Miss Mendez

"We thought that a net was a bad idea cause the animals could get caught in it at night" - Camryn
