Compost Recipe Activity Sheet (1 per student)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In this unit, students go outside and through their lunchbox to find compostable items. Next, students will set up their workstations to build their own miniature compost bin in a recycled bottle. Students can watch and observe this compost system for weeks at home before finally dumping it out into their own garden space to enrich the soil.
