Four Rs Action Program: Reduce, Reuse,
Recycle, & Rot
The Four Rs Action Program: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, & Rot educates students about the importance of conserving resources and reducing the amount of waste going to our landfills. Students in grades 3-5 participate in hands-on science experiments and activities about garbage entering our waterways, recycling, worm composting, reducing packaging and environmental justice.
The Four Rs Action Program consists of:
• Six classroom lessons
• An environmental action project
• Lessons that address California State Science and Social Science Standards
The Four Rs Action Program is also a teacher-training program. Teachers learn alongside their students and receive both a curriculum guide and an equipment kit to teach the program to future students. Up to eight Continuing Education Units are available through our partnership with California State University East Bay.
