Our Recycling Project
Jackson Harris, January 30
Last Thursday, my class learned about (1) **how** we can do with things we normally throw away, like plastic bottles. Afterwards, our teacher asked us (2) **to make** something useful out of trash and show the class on Monday. I made toys out of toilet paper rolls. I painted the paper rolls (3) **and** added eyes, hair, and hats. My favorite toy is (4) **a** silly monster with four eyes. I gave one (a cute witch) to my little sister. My friend, Riley, reused (5) **the** rabbits and cats. I thought recycling would be boring but it is not. This project was really fun and useful. I did not know that we can make so many things from trash.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
