Vernon E. Greer Elementary

The Galt Joint Union Elementary School District (GJUESD) is working in collaboration with Cal-Waste Recovery Systems to provide Recycling Education curriculum to students in 2nd-4th grades.

 

The curriculum was developed to provide students with an understanding of how to manage solid waste, the importance of recycling in our community, and how to be a responsible citizen.

 

The lessons focus on landfills, the concept of "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle", recyclable materials, and taking action. A variety of teaching and learning strategies are incorporated in these lessons, including discussion, small group work, research activities, and more!
