  1. maybe consider involving elementary students. THEY LOVE to HELP! =)


  2. Start a contest asking students to artistically draw up a picture/slogan to recycle glass bottles and/or soda cans. The winner gets their picture in the school newspaper, cloth tote to shop at stores, and their winning picture on receptacles collecting the cans/bottles.

    Have a day when students can meet to help pick up trash in a littered area. Or a place to plant trees. Go even deeper and start a "community garden" at school. Everyone that participates gets to put their name in a raffle where they can win 2 movie tickets for example. (or any other prize that a student could possibly feel motived towards winning)

  3. There is a kid's game called Blue's Clue's Art Time Activities, in which a character in "Recycle Land" has actual project blueprints using everyday household throwaway items.  You can probably find it in the Library, print out the projects and lists of supplies, have a day where the students pick out a project and bring the supplies to a common area/park along with younger siblings 2-7yrs (find volunteers with the local boy/girl scouts boys/girls big brothers/big sisters club to participate)

    And have a hayday learning how to make cool kids projects by recycling.

  4. I've got an idea! You can  have big teams, and everyone can pick a street by your school and clean it up and plant trees and plants and stuff. Then the nicest looking street's team can win some really cool prize. make it something cool though, maybe like tickets to a football game or gift certificates.

    And you canmake this a like a month long thing where they also have to raise the money for plants and things.

    Or you can just have a competition between grades to see who can recycle the most,. Have different bins with the grade numbers on them, and whoever fills up the most bags win a free day to party. Or the whole grade gets free ice cream.

    Hope these help!!!

  5. have a  little party like a bbq while people clean up trash in a local park or something

    make it like a fundraiser maybe

  6. How about planning a day when you all get together and clean up trash like at a park or something but you make it into a party where everyone brings stuff to eat and drink after the job is done and include music, maybe a movie, karaoke? Something that will bring everyone out to help with the clean up...it will entice them to show up because of the fun afterward. You could come up with a theme and plan the party around it. Kids love parties. If it is in the summer it could end with a cook out? Maybe a pool party? Only those that help with the clean-up are invited to the party afterwards.

    Good luck!
