April 2016 ~ Kitty Kitty Kindergarten

I'm so excited to be a part of a special
Earth Day Blog Hop with my #kinderfriends !
We have lots a great ideas for you and
your class for Earth Day!!

I LoVe Earth Day! It’s a great day to celebrate our earth and discover new ways to take care of our earth. I take great responsibility teaching my students and fellow teachers creative ways to reduce, reuse and recycle everyday in school and at home.

On a daily basis our class recycles our plastic and paper. We have a bin for paper/cardboard and one for plastic. This is an easy task that everyone can participate in. I also encourage my fellow teachers at lunch to use the recycle bins that are provided in our teacher's lounge. It’s working and I have more and more participation! But it doesn't stop there. I of course also collect and melt broken crayons to make new ones, use baby wipe boxes for storage, use bottle caps and dried out marker caps in our counting jars and much, much more but my favorite thing is to repurpose.
