My Project

This project was created to provide students with materials and activities they can efficiently utilize to explore our reduce, reuse, and recycle unit. Throughout this unit, students will learn and explore how to care for the Earth.

This unit will allow for students to learn how they can be active participants in taking care of our home, Earth!

These differentiated learning materials will be utilized in our various interest areas around our classroom to deepen the knowledge from our new unit. Students will be provided with an abundance of NEW and AMAZING resources including books, puzzles, and other ENGAGING activities!
