RECYCLE!

Last week Maleah's girl scouts visited the local recycling facility to learn about recycling and to raise a little bit of money. They had a good time and we all learned a lot.

Her whole group........

The girls started collecting bottles and cans at home a few weeks ago and they all brought some with them to the recycling center. First, they had to separate everything into these garbage cans......

Then, it was time to weigh it all and collect our money! The girls got a total of $41.76!

After weighing the important stuff (the stuff that earned money!), the girls decided to weigh themselves......

10 first and second graders weighed in at 529.8 pounds!.....

After all of the outdoor fun we moved inside for a lesson on recycling.....and the girls got to see the big garbage trucks come in after collecting recycling all day.

We all learned a lot about the do's and don'ts of recycling and are excited to do even more at home!
