RecycleSmart: Composting in the Classroom

Registration is now open for the 2024-2025 school year.  Plan ahead and book for next school year using the link below!

Get ready to dig in and investigate the importance of natural cycling! A rarely explored but incredibly important realm of our world’s natural cycles lies right under our feet, in the dark, rich soils. Solve the mysteries of the wiggly creatures that live underneath us consuming items we no longer want and transforming them into the nutrients we need. Our Do The Rot thing is designed for students in grades K-2 and our Wonderful Worms class is designed for students in grades 3-5.  Class curriculum addresses Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).

Programs are 1 hour long for 1 class at a time.  To make the most of our grant funds, please book multiple classes at your site on the same day.
