Recycle!!

Today Jerrod was throwing out a popsicle box. He starts to throw it away and Logan says "Dad don't throw that out we can put it in the recycle box at school!" Logan has been studying recycling at school. I thought this was so impressive of him! Jerrod decides to ask him some questions. He asked Logan if he knew what recycling was. He said it was a green box with three arrows on it. Jerrod then asked him what happens to the box after it is full. Logan told him, the garbage man comes and takes it away! He may not totally have the entire concept down, but I think it is great that they are learning about recycling and being so aware at such a young age! One day last week, Logan told me they went for a walk and picked up trash around the school. The classes went for walks around the school and picked up all the litter. Then they got back to the classroom and sorted the items that were to be recycled as well as the garbage. Tomorrow we are supposed to send some items for the children to sort through and recycle also. Jerrod already set out that popsicle box for him!
