What can we do with our old milk containers?

Room 15 are having a great time re-using many things that either end up being thrown away or sent to the recyclers. 

Our topic of Our Own Backyard has helped us to see how much rubbish there is around our school and how some of it might end up in the estuary. 

We decided to re use our milk containers and turn them into something useful.  We had to wash them and make sure they were properly dry because if we didn't they would have been really stinky. Then we joined them together into groups of four. They should be perfect to use as a pencil holder. 

There were some really good photos in the magazines that we could use to decorate our pencil holders. 

We had to take our time and make sure those pictures were glued on properly

Motorbikes were the pic of the day here...

 

Tada...

Now I get to take it home, but I have to leave the pencils at school.
