National Recycling Week - Rubbish Sorting Activity

The aim of this activity is to encourage children to think about waste and recycling. Younger children are asked to investigate different types of waste, describing and sorting the different types of waste according to their size, shape, weight, colour and texture. Older children are asked to look more deeply at different types of waste and think about which bins these types of waste should go in.
This activity is designed to help connect children to the wonders of the natural world through sensory and play-based learning.
