Earth Day-April 22, 2014

We learned a lot about

by creating butterflies with coffee filters, making bird feeders by reusing small plastic containers, making paper from scraps of paper some may otherwise throw in the trash, creating creatures reusing our morning milk containers, we made terrariums reusing 2 liter bottles, we went paperless with our work all day, and we listened to a guest speaker explain the proper ways to recycle.
