Recycling Procedures

What Happens on Recycling Day

Come in and sit quietly. One student will pass out lanyards with recycling

passes. Jobs will be assigned in this order:

– Cans and Bottles (Extra Credit) or paper– Driving

Do your job. Help others finish. Turn in your recycling pass before being dismissed. All Classroom Guidelines apply!

Cans and Bottles (3-4 students)

I will ask for volunteers– Only volunteers get Extra Credit.

If no volunteers, I will assign. Students whose names are assigned will help

with cans and bottles—no whining, no excuses and no extra credit!

Cans and Bottles--Procedure

Gather the 24 yellow bins from around the school.– Use the marked map of the school– Do Not drag the bins for any reason! They scratch the floor.

Take them outside to the sidewalk by the greenhouse. (Inside during inclement weather)

Sort cans and bottles into bags in the grey containers. Empty all liquids into the grass. Rinse the yellow bins with water (using a spray nozzle). Spray inside yellow bins with Virex. Return yellow bins to their correct locations. Clean up all trash from rinsing area.

Students will travel in pairs. Each pair must have one vehicle available to travel.
