The classroom is the perfect place to stress the importance of recycling paper. This project will allow me to teach students about the loss of trees in our environment and how not recycling affects each of them, their family members and our entire planet. By encouraging students to recycle, there is a greater chance that they each will grow into adults who continue to recycle. With the laminating machine and pouches we will be able to laminate regularly used handouts, this will be ideal in learning how and why we should recycle. Throughout the school year, there are many activities students participate in consistently, to stress the importance of a skill. Some examples would be handwriting practice activities, story elements charts, and many other graphic organizers. With this in mind, by laminating these sheets, many packs of paper could be saved, which will reinforce our recycling mission. Paper waste and how we choose to handle it affects our world's environment. We all need a healthy environment for our own health and happiness. This project will assist students in understanding why effective recycling and paper waste management is so important to everyone. Help us help OUR planet, by laminating with a purpose. This may just be one small step in tackling the issue of paper waste, but the lasting impact will be tremendous! Help us bring this project to life!
