Rotten Trutch about Garbage
http://www.astc.org/exhibitions/rotten/rthome.htm
What is garbage and how do we dispose of it? Learning that reducing waste is the only real answer, students will also be examining how nature itself recycles. Students will have a chance to participate in their own projects, such as a Family Trash Audit, or, "Are You Having Garbage for Lunch?". They can also learn how landfills work, or meet people who are making a difference. |
