Today we shared our Waste in our World slideshows some of the things we learned were:

- if we do not recycle the Earth will turn into a giant landfill
- there is a landfill the size of Texas
- latex balloons are compostable
- you can make wasteless lunches by using reusable containers
- toxic and hazardous waste can be found in labs, gas stations and you house
- there are lots of symbols for types of waste, both toxic and for recycling
- you can reduce electricity by turning off the lights when you are not home

**Next week we would like to try doing WASTELESS LUNCHES - Can you help?

We read our novel and Fudge got a new pet who was very mouthy! 

Reminders:
- Field Trip next week
- Picture day is Wednesday
