Biodegradable Materials

During this unit  2nd and 5th grade students focused on the science of bio degradation and the importance of recycling . After studying the process of bio degradation and how long it takes different objects to degrade students used recycled paper to create plantable paper pulp sculptures . As a class they create one sculpture for each year it takes for their chosen object to fully degrade. Their sculptures were then hung in the school to inspire other students to recycle.
