Sorting: recycling into paper, plastic and food waste

For parents

How to make it

about 20 minutesmedium

Colour in the pictures and cut the cards apart along the dashed lines.
Where does each bit of rubbish go? Old paper and cardboard go with paper. Plastic bottles, cups and bags go with plastic. Leftover food, peel and leaves go with food and garden waste.
Put each card in the right bin. Then look together at how you sort your rubbish at home: it isn't exactly the same everywhere.
Check together with the answer sheet. All correct? Then glue the cards down.
