Nagano Shooting Star – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (September 17th-20th)

Hello everyone!

We had another fun-filled week. We reviewed the three R’s in our UOI lessons and practiced for the sports festival.

Sports festival practice

We have been busy practicing our dance, para-balloon, and relay races for the sports festival. For the relay race, it was the first time they learned how to receive and pass a baton, and everyone did their best! They continued to practice the dance and para-balloon in the dance lesson.,

UOI

The main topic this week was the three R’s: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. We delved deeper into recycling and discussed the reasons why we recycle. Additionally, we watched a video showing what happens to recycled materials and how they are processed.

At the end of the week, we conducted an assessment by asking the children to sort various objects into the categories of reduce, reuse, and recycle. Some of the items could have been sorted into more than one category, so this allowed the children to explain their reasoning for their choices.
