Trash
Isn't it a pain to take out the garbage? Have you ever thought about the stuff you are throwing out? What actually is garbage made out of? Well, most of the stuff you throw out can be **reused**, **recycled**, or **reduced**. In this activity, you will identify: 1. different types of trash, 2. some of the sources of this trash, 3. how people dispose of their trash, 4. what happens to trash through time.
 * Introduction:**

Just think, by simply rethinking the concept of garbage, you could alleviate the burden of taking the trash out to the corner every week.

Break up into groups of two:
 * Task:**
 * Brainstorm different types of trash you throw away everyday.
 * Write them down in a piece of paper.
 * Find pictures in using Google Images for each type of trash you brainstormed with your partner.
 * Organize the pictures in Microsoft Publisher using the three categories below:
 * **REUSABLE TRASH**
 * **RECYCLABLE TRASH**
 * **DISSPOSABLE TRASH**
 * Create a Bibliography of all the Websites you used to borrow the pictures.
