Earth Day: Read “We Can Reuse it” on Epic! This book also reads to you and has some questions you can answer at the end. Answer the question, ‘Why is it important and helpful to the environment to reuse objects instead of throwing them away?”
Can you find something in your house that you can turn into something new instead of throwing away? Feel free to get creative and find some ideas on Pinterest if you are feeling stuck. When you are finished share your photo on Fresh Grade and I will make a pic collage to share on our blog!
