This morning we had the pleasure of having the City of Rock Hill bring in someone to talk to our first graders about the importance of Recycling. During the presentation students and the presenters talked about what happens when trash goes to a landfill and how much of that trash never decomposes or takes hundreds of years for decomposition to occur. The students also got to participate in a little skit that showed how a plastic bottle can be recycled and made into a sweater. The kids were amazed and didn't realize that this could actually happen. Finally, the students talked about what items can be recycled and what items cannot and have to be thrown away. The students were able to take home a folder and pencil out of recycled materials as a souvenir.

AuthorMy name is Erin Webb and I am going into my fourteenth year teaching. I taught kindergarten in Summerville, SC for one year before moving to Rock Hill after getting married. Since being in Rock Hill, I have been teaching first grade at Rosewood Elementary International School. This will be my sixth year teaching using the Dual Language Model. I will be team teaching with Monsieur Joseph McFadden. I am very excited about what the coming year has to offer! Archives
