I'm 100% agree on this Preschool and Elementary school educational training. As I said earlier I will give my full support to this activity. I love teaching kids and specially these kind of training for kids 😊
@ErmesT: This is such an undertaking. I want to applaud and thank you for the initiative that you have taken for this project.
With regards to ideas...here were a few things that I recall doing (way back when...)
When i was in high school, we, as in a few of my classmates and I, got to go to an elementary school to do some teaching with regards to the 3Rs: Recycling, Reusing and Reducing.
We tried to do a few interactive activities with the kids.
Here in my city, we have a complex process for sorting out items for disposal each week, glass, plastic, newspaper, mixed paper, etc. We took a handful of items including soda bottles, cereal boxes, soft plastic bags, milk jugs, etc. and asked the children to organize them into piles to teach them what to do and how to sort through their waste at home. We actually went to the city at the time and asked them for the bags and bins that are normally distributed to households so that the kids would recognize where to put the items as well.
We talked about things like using a reusable water bottle to reduce plastic waste. We had things like stickers to give to the kids for their water bottles so they can personalize and make it more "personal."
With regards to the 3Rs: A poster board for each of the 3 words. Then had items that we should recycle, reduce and reuse taped onto them. For example, we had pop cans, magazines, and newspapers on the recycle board. Foam containers, plastic utensils, and take out boxes were on the reducing board. Reusing board had items like scrap paper, shoe boxes, etc.
Just a few ideas to start. Will come back to populate as I get more ideas.
Please post publicly so others can benefit as well. I do not have private messages. Thanks!
