Greetings from Italy

Hello friends, these are children of class three, involved in the construction of special bins to make in their classroom a small recycling center for paper and plastic. We have called the bins "butti" from an ancient word "butto" that was a hole in the ground, where in the middle age, people threw their rubbish. Children had built the bins with simple materials, and then they had decorated them with drawings about pollution and recycling. The draw says:" These are rubbish that we THROW AWAY instead of RECYCLING" Then children had built some simple musical instruments with recycled materials, like the toilet paper tube, filled in with pulses, and finally decorated with pictures cutted from magazines. They enjoyed very much this activity!
