NOTICE: Milk Cartons and Juice Boxes Can Now Be Recycled! Please Do Not Add Milk Cartons To Organics.
Use these videos as a quick training tool or instant refresher for your students. They are also embedded in the training slide decks.
Each video caters to a specific grade band and focuses on different aspects of waste as well as the process of waste sorting:
K-6: defines organics and recycling
7-8: focuses on food waste prevention
9-12: relates waste to the climate disruption
Join other Woodland elementary students as they explore what waste sorting is, why it's important, and how to do it correctly!
Discover how eating your food instead of throwing it away helps the environment and how to properly sort food waste and recyclables at school.
Follow Woodland high school students as they examine their school's waste and connect food waste to climate change.
These resources were developed for the benefit of Woodland schools by Blueblossom Consulting and funded by the City of Woodland through grants awarded to Woodland by CalRecycle and the Carton Council.
Blueblossom Consulting will be developing a K-12 curriculum guide during the 2024-2025 school year. This curriculum guide will incorporate hands-on, interdisciplinary lesson plans and activities centered on waste prevention and diversion in Yolo County. Teachers, administrators, and district staff who would like to provide input on this resource, specifically to help fill curriculum gaps or needs, should contact Allison Martin at allison@blueblossomconsulting.com.
