Ecology Center Visit

The amazing folks from the Ecology Center came to visit us today.  They taught us about recycling and composting!  Our landfills are getting too full and we need to try and figure out other ways to get rid of our waste.  Today we learned about the things that are currently going into landfills that don’t need to be there (What’s in the Trash poster). 

They also learned about composting and the critters that help composts break down faster. 

Vocabulary Words:  compost, decompose, decomposers, and nutrients

Objectives:  Identify how nature “recycles” resources and how decomposers do their job.
