Helping at home- save plastic for an eco brick project

Prepare yourself for some 'eco-bricking'. 

Start saving the clean, dry bits of plastic that you would normally throw away. Keep a bag in the kitchen and start saving up any plastic that can go into an eco brick, instead of going to landfill. You could collect:

  • Mama noodle packets (as long as you have shaken out the dry noodles

  • crisp packets

  • plastic shopping bags which have split

  • plastic from around six packs of drinks


Next Tuesday, we will be looking at how to make an eco brick.  We are giving you a week to get enough plastic saved to make a really good start.  

For this, you will also need to save or find a 2L water bottle.  

Time for you to focus on you! Have a snack and do something that makes you smile.  

Lesson 4: 11:00-11:40 a.m.

PSHE- Can I express gratitude?

This idea comes from one of our Year 4 parents.  You will need:

  • A jar or small box
  • Some small pieces of paper upon which you can write a few sentences
  • pens/paints to decorate the box or jar.  

Each day this week (and for longer if you enjoy it!) write a message to your parents and put it in the jar.  

They will also need to write you a message each day.  

The messages should be about you showing gratitude (being thankful) or appreciation for each other.  

Possible sentence starters:

  • Mum, I really liked it when...
  • Dad, you made me smile when...

As a family, you can come up with a name for your jar and agree the time that you will open your messages each day.  


Lesson 5: 1:00-1:40 p.m.
