Today Monica came to visit the class to talk about reusing and recycling. Monica helps up reuse items so they can last longer. Today, she handed us a piece of tinfoil (the size of a piece of paper.) She asked us to make something you can wear with the tinfoil. So I chose to make a hat and she also told us we can decorate our item with anything on our table. Some people decided to decorate their item with marker but, I decided to decorate my hat with post-its. A lot of people made shoes with the tinfoil. After that, she wanted us to choose a partner from your table and make something for them out of the same tinfoil we used for the item we made before. I made a bracelet for my partner with the tinfoil and because and we also couldn’t use glue or tape, I used the play-do from my table to stick the bracelet together. The play-do wasn’t helping to much because it still wouldn’t stick together and the play-do would just turn all crumbly. At the end, when we all sat down on the rug, Monica asked us if it was different or similar to make something for someone else then to make something for ourselves. I thought about that question and In my opinion it was different because I don’t normally wear jewelry, but I could picture my partner wearing a bracelet. I put the same amount of effort that I would, to make something for myself but my thinking was a bit different. Today I learned that 91% of recyclable items don’t get recycled. One thing I could do to reuse items, is to save containers that can get recycled and use it as a pencil holder. In the future I would love to learn more about this topic and help by doing anything I can.
