You may have already heard of this, but if not, listen up!!
The Crayola company uses old markers and recycles and repurposes them to create energy and other natural resources. To read more about this green initiative and many others click here.
It's so easy! Just place a box or bin in your classroom or in a central location at your school and instead of throwing away those dried up magic markers and dry erase markers, drop them in the ColorCycle Bin. When it gets full, count them, box them up, and print a postage paid shipping label and let FedEx Ground pick up!! It doesn't get much easier than that!
When you introduce this initiative to your students you can use some of these fun, fact-filled lesson plans to assist you.
