Recycle Signal

Today at Enrich Isabella's Mum came in again and we finished rolling the newspapers. We also started the table top. First of all we chose a design. The design was the recycle signal, that you see on the bottom of the things you can recycle, outlined in black and coloured in white, then we had a circle and it was coloured in green. Next we put little black circles around the circle and decided we'd colour in the rest of the cardboard white. We put it all on and it actually looked pretty good. This is what it looked like:

Teacher Comment

Hi Kate.

Your preparation for the recycled furniture is going so well!  You girls were REALLY busy all day.  I didn’t hear any complaining about all the painting you had to do - you all just got on with it!  Great to see.  The discussion about water pollution today was pretty interesting.  We could see your thoughts progressing with each question you asked!  It is something to keep in mind, that while we are doing our bit with our environment projects, we also need to keep in mind the bigger picture and the fact that if everyone does just one thing to help - even through awareness - then this is a step in the right direction.  It was great to see you so involved in the discussion Kate!  Katie.

Coloured Circles

Today at Enrich we painted the circles from the pizza boxes colours after painting them white last week. We painted a few white but mostly we painted the already white ones blue, yellow, orange, purple, green and red. We still need to make 60 more newspaper rolls because we didn't make any this week and we still have lots more cardboard circles to paint!
