Hi Parents! This is Miss Hitt. I am a third grade teacher at Silver Lake Elementary.
So far we have been doing some great activities with recycling. One in which the students really enjoyed was “Trash into Treasures”. In the project students split up into groups and came up with ideas of things they could make out of items they throw away every day. At the end of the project each group presented the item they had made in front of the class, and also went over what this item would be used for, and what kind of people benefit from this item. This is great because not only are your children practicing creativity, working with others, computer skills and public speaking, but they are also discovering how to make our world a nicer place. The students as a class have also watched some great videos made by us teachers, informing them on how to recycle and the importance of doing so. I am very excited about this unit and the students seem to be enjoying it too.
Now, I’d like to introduce Miss Newcomb who will be going over our main goal for this unit.
