Teacher Tip: Save the Leftovers
|
|
Submitted by Pamela Zell, Academy Heights Elementary
School, Pinehurst, NC

 |
Don’t let
your students throw fruit and vegetable leftovers in the
trash. Instead, have them deposit their leftovers in the
school compost bin. Then use the resulting compost in
your class or school garden.
