PK4 Recycles and Reuses

The PreK4 students have been learning about recycling and the effects on our environment.  To accompany the lessons, Rachel from YLC and Erin from The Green Project visited the students to talk about reusable items.  They reused old paint to paint Mardi Gras cups to be used as planters.  The next day, the students planted seeds in the cups and will watch them grow throughout the end of the school year.
