Recycling Activities & Info - posted from Kingwood, TX
From Republic Services, this site has some lesson plans, videos, and activities for different grade levels. Greasy pizza boxes, plastic bags, styrofoam can NOT be recycled. Never recycle something smaller than an ID card. It's imperative we teach kids to recycle correctly or it won't make a difference.

a 20 minute video that shows two factories - one that is a recycling intake center, the other is the Ball factory where they take the aluminum sheets and make them into cans. It also has fun facts and a father and daughter bringing cans to the recycling center and collecting money.

This is a video that highlights different ways we pollute the environment. The beginning is pretty serious but after that their is a cartoon and an ending song that reinforces the ideas of reducing, reusing and recycling.
