All seventh and eighth grade students read with their science partners about landfills and single-stream recycling, which is our current recycling program at CGS.
The students gained valuable knowledge from these articles.
Here's a few of the main points mentioned in class discussions:
- how trash piles up and why it is problematic
- the layers of landfills
- how single-stream recycling is sorted and why it is a more popular method than sorting
A few of The Trash Talkers also presented information to the seventh and eighth graders about the process of composting.
October 13th, we continued in our implementing step and both 7th and 8th Trash Talkers talked to their grade levels about the importance of composting. Colby Garner and Clark Bagwell talked to their 7th grade classes. Emily Jolley and I (Bricen Ghent) discussed the concept with 8th grade.
