Action
The grade eight students at Woodlands Elementary School took a new spin on the litterless lunch idea. They used their math and analytical skills to highlight not only the waste-related benefits of litterless snacks, but also the taste and cost-related benefits as well. These students compared the cost and taste of store-bought, pre-packaged snacks and drinks with homemade versions. The students presented this information to grade four students in seven other local schools.
