the cmma class took trash from classrooms and sorted it out. as groups we weigh the bag and write it down.












then we took the bag and emptied it on the ground onto a big plastic tarp.
and boy did it smell....=(.there was papers, plastics and even a hair weave.














when we sorted through the trash we had to look for mixed papers,newspaper,plastic bottles,and food scraps and soiled paper. there was a lot of papers more than anything. also a lot of random things like a hair weave.

next we had to weigh the piles and take down the data also we took pictures an video. the data we had was that there was 3 and one half pounds of mixed papers, one pound of of other plastics, and two ponds of food scraps and soiled paper.






how can classrooms reduce consumption and disposal of materials? they can eat different things or try not to waste or litter.how can the 4r's be applied to the materials found in the trash? they can recycle the paper and plastic bottles. also they can separate the soiled paper and put it in compose. then they can put them in separate piles.
what specific materials should the class focus on diverting in the classroom?mostly the paper and plastic bottles b/c the students use a lot of it on a daily basis. and they are always drinking water and what not during class. so yea having a bin for paper and plastic bottles would reduce of litter and waste.
