As part our Earth Day learning in science, 3rd graders explored why recycling is so important and how we can take better care of our planet. They used their creativity to build their very own robots using recycled materials!
From bottle caps to cardboard boxes, these students turned their "trash" into something truly amazing. Each robot even came with its own story as student s wrote about their design and purpose.
We are so proud of their creativity, hard word, and the way they are learning to make a difference--one recycled robot at a time! 🌎♻️💚 #NOKOPROUD
