Free Earth Day Recycling Sorting Center

Need a fun Earth Day activity for your centers this April?  This free Earth Day sorting and science center is very hands-on and sensory-friendly.  All you need are our free printables, a few containers, and some recyclables for students to sort!

Here are the printables you need to make the center! Each center label has picture cues on it to help students.  There is also a “can’t be recycled” label as well (not pictured).  Add bins and some recyclables, and you have a great hands-on sorting center for Earth Day and science!

As with all of our freebies, please note that this is a personal/classroom use resource. It may not be hosted on other web pages.  If you feature or pin this, please link to this page and NOT the pdf file.  Thank you!

Meet the Teachers

Meet the Teachers

Back when we were both teaching, we dreamed of a website that would make lesson planning easier. We both remember late nights scouring search engine for unit ideas. After searching 1000s of blogs and sites, nothing was exactly meeting our vision: creative resources for the overworked teacher or homeschooler! So…this was born.
