IPS/Butler University Laboratory School

Here are all of our friends on the walk over to St. Richards.

Last Friday, a friend in the class said, “Mrs. Clark, we have so much paper!!”  I, in return, asked, “What should we do with it?!”  After some conversation we decided that we should look into a Paper Retriever Bin.  These are giant bins (ths size of the giant trash bins outside of our school.)  I contacted the Paper Retriever Company and found out that we might not have enough people to have a bin.  SO….today we took a walking field trip to our neighbor school, St. Richards.  We went over to talk to Mrs. Williams, the Early Childhood and Lower Division Head of St. Richards.  The kids told her what we were doing and then asked if St. Richards would be interested in helping us recycle paper.  She responded with a YES!  We then brainstormed some ideas of how we can communicate with the kids at St. Richards.  Our list involved writing letters, making signs, and writing an announcement for Mrs. Williams to read.  In the next few weeks we will be doing this to build our recycling partnership! 

Mrs. Williams had a lot of questions for us!
