Motivational Activity Continue Again With Some More Points

1 .Make a “Trash Man.” Draw an outline of a life-size person on white posterboard. Have students bring human-madetrash items to school and glue them onto the silhouette with a hot glue gun. Use some of the trash to resemble facial features, eyes, nose, hair, etc. Display the“Trash Man” to remind students and visitors to “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, & Refuse.” Add students’ comments or slogans to encourage litter prevention.
On chart paper or in a journal, have students write about the variety of trash they collected and their feelings about recycling. How would it help if people simply refused to use an unnecessary item? Example: extra napkins, straws, and ketchup packets at a fast food restaurant.

2. Plan a field trip to a national park. In preparation, have students write in their gratitude journals: What natural and historic resources (plants, animals, views, artifacts) will the students see? Why are they thankful for these? How can they help protect the park and the resources? What does the national park do to protect
and preserve these resources? After the park visit, have students write about their experience. What did they
see, feel, and enjoy? In what ways are they thankful for the park? Do they hope the park is there for their future and for future generations? How can they help and why should they care? Can they be trusted to care for our environment?

3. Have the students discuss what they can do to help “save our Earth.” In their journals, ask them to illustrate at least three good citizenship behaviors that would help to eliminate pollution and protect resources.
