Carton Recycling

Grades: Elementary (1-5)

Subject Area: Math, Science, Language Arts

Made Possible By: The Carton Council

Teach your students how they can have a positive impact on the environment by recycling the cartons they use at school every day. Standards-based activity sheets for grades 1-3 and grades 4-5 combine math, science, and language arts to help students estimate how many cartons could be recycled at your school and mobilize support for an in-school recycling program.
