Watch this space for comments from the Room 8 kids about how they used their items.
Amy - my item was a milk bottle. I cut it in the middle so I could put pencils, rubbers and stuff in it.
Ella - My item was also a milk bottle. I cut it in half to make a pot to plant tomato seeds in!
Lauren- my item was a mandarin bag from the fruit shop that I used as a bird feeder. I could fill it with bread and hang it in a tree.
Freya - I brought an old earl grey lavender tea container that I could use to hold my pencils.
Willow - I brought a tissue box that I could re-use to hold my little toys.
Madison - My item was a washing powder box. We had to think of how we could re-use it. I thought I could make a pencil holder too.
Jules - I had a metal chocolate container from my Dad's chocolates. I used it to keep my magnetix in.
Charlotte Wilson - I made a pencil, rubber and glue stick holder out of small and large yogurt containers. Then I covered them with pictures from magazines.
Louis - I brought a ice-cream container that I can use as my lunch box. Lots of people in our class use ice-cream containers to keep their lunch in at school.

Wow what creative ideas you have Room 8 for recycling uses. I particularly liked Charlottes very colourful and creative pencil and pen holder. I never would have thought of reusing a mandarin bag in that way Lauren. I guess there is a way to reuse most things. We just need to get creative and put our thinking caps on! Well done Room 8.
