Trash and Recycling

Put trash in the bin, and recycle bottles, cans, and paper.

Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.

For grown-ups

Your child puts trash in the bin and recycles bottles, cans, and paper. We suggest reading it together.

What children learn in Level 49

Trash does not belong on the ground. It goes in a bin.
Some things can be recycled. They get made into new things. Bottles, cans, and paper go in the recycle bin.
Food scraps and wrappers go in the trash.
Your turn! A can can be recycled. A banana peel goes in the trash.
Try it with a grown-up! After a snack, sort what is left: recycle, or trash?
