Teaching little children the art of recycling is such a beautiful thought and if you wish to see it being put to action then visit Westmont Junior High. Young kids were taught new and interesting methods to recycle everyday household items. In a special class conducted last week, Laura Riley taught her sixth grade students the importance of recycling to save the planet.
Riley taught the students how to reuse some common items that we very conveniently throw away. The kids learnt ways to recycle things such as old cell phones, printer cartridges, batteries and video games in responsible and environmentally friendly ways. Small milk cartons were transformed into simple bird feeders that can hang from trees, while gallon-size milk jugs were taken home to store old batteries, cell phones and other small items that could be later taken for recycling. In addition, some pencils made from old, worn out currency became a perfect example to demonstrate how things that are no more in use can be used effectively.
