Our resource is designed to educate students about the three R's, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. With the population increasing, schools must be educated about proper recycling and how to effectively manage waste disposal. With the use of the three R's, Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, schools around the country can inform students how to keep the environment clean. Our resource provides links to helpful sources, which we believe will assist you in furthering your personal knowledge of the topic and to help the students interact with various resources.

Reduce, Reuse, Recylce
 * Topic:**

Teach children about the importance of the three R's by having them create their own movie about either reduce, reuse or recycle that will be presented at an assembly to the school body. This movie will include points that will help the school become environmentally friendly and more efficient with waste disposal. The children will also regularly use a blog to help show what they are learning throughout this experience.

__**The topic of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle**__

Reduce the amount of waste you produce. Make sure you buy products that are green and use less plastic wraps (green Coles bags, biodegradable products). Make cards and gifts at home rather than buying them. Carpool to places and ride or walk where possible. Reuse things that have been used before, for example plastic water bottles or glassware. Hire, share and borrow items. Have garage sales to allow other people to reuse your things/ share items or donate to thrift shops or charities. Use the green and yellow bins correctly. Recycling is when you can make something new out of something old.
