C. YOU ARE RECY

1. You are in charge of study the waste in the Earth.

2. First, you have to copy these questions in your notebook:

- What is solid waste?

- What types of waste do we produce?

- Is it possible to reduce waste? How?

- Which is the most dangerous garbage?

- How does pollution affect life in our planet?

3. Your next step will be to surf the web using the resources provided to find the answers to the questions.

4. Now, make a survey to three adults asking questions relating to how was the waste produced when they were kids comparing to now.

5. Write a report using the computer where you explain all the information of your investigation and add pictures to it.

6. Share your investigation information with your group members.

7. Create an announcement report poster to show how are we damaging the Earth and list rules we should accomplish to avoid damaging and preserve the planet. Add pictures and drawings to it.
