Library Celebrates Earth Day

Recycling notes
The library continues to offer learning experiences that connect children to the community outside of our school through human resources.  Thanks to a library visit from Julia Goldstein from the agency GrowNYC, we learned how we can become good citizens by recycling at school and at home.  Ms. Goldstein is partnering with teachers Mrs. Heather Madigan (STAR)  and Danette Lebron (TNS).   Julia played a trash sorting game with grades 1/2, in preparation for which we learned about recycling categories.  Did you know that only if plastic has a neck that is smaller than its body it is recyclable? That means those plastic berry containers go in the trash.  Don't be surprised if your child has more recycling facts to share with you!
