Hello parents! This is Miss Newcomb and I am also one of the third grade teachers at Silver Lake Elementary. Myself, as well as the other two third grade teachers, are very excited about this Unit on Recycling!
Ultimately, our goal is to create a community that promotes recycling within Silver Lake Elementary School. In order to be successful in creating this pro recycling community here in the school, we need the help of everyone. This includes teachers, students, parents, and family members at home. Our final goal is to have a school atmosphere at Silver Lake Elementary that is conducive to good recycling habits. With the involvement of each and every classroom in the school, we want to make school wide recycling bins to place in each classroom, as well as high traffic areas such as the cafeteria, the playground, the parking lot, the school office, the library, and even in the hallways. By doing this, we are hoping that students will begin to see how easy and efficient recycling can be and how important it is to a community, not only to reduce unnecessary waste, but also to try to instill in others the importance of reducing waste, reusing recyclable materials, and recycling products appropriately. By creating this school wide recycling atmosphere, your children will gain an appreciation for recyclable materials and they will also begin to see how their efforts to recycle at school can also be done at home. These small steps can promote recycling within the larger community and our ideas can be used to create neighborhood and community wide recycling.

Reflecting on our journey through this recycling unit, students can see where we started out in this recycling unit and how far we have come. I know that I can speak for all of the teachers, as well as myself, when I saw that we are all so happy at the enthusiasm that each student has shown throughout this unit and we cannot wait to see where it goes from here!
