Learning NEVER stops!

I am SUCH a teacher......I am a strong believer that learning shouldn't stop in the summer time. So a few families got together and went to tour the base recycling center. We viewed a PowerPoint about recycling facts....America produces the most trash out of ALL nations and recycles the least!

Here are some pics:

Viewing the results of the cardboard crusher...each child threw a box in, they turned on the machine and got to view how small the boxes were afterwards
