  2. What is Recycling? Recycling is when something that does not work is decomposed and used for something else. Example: When you use a water bottle and you finish it, you put it in the recycling bin. Then it is melted down and made into another bottle. Recycling is made to human materials like…. Newspaper, pencils, bottles, soda cans, aluminum foil etc. VOCABULARY Recycling- is turning trash back into human materials Decomposers- are fungi, bacteria, and insects Decomposing- turns dead plants back to plants by taking seeds from the old plant and planting them. Animals get turned into waste.

  3. How Recycling helps the Ecosystem Recycling helps things recreate and waste that is not needed is gone and a new piece of land is born looking good as new! Example: you enter a piece of land. You find lots of new baby plants and all the dead plants gone from the last time you came. Bacteria eats dead plants and animals eat plants.

  4. The Recycling process • First things that need to be recycled are picked up by special people. They are turned in to the nearest recycling center. There, they are emptied into a slide that sorts different types of materials. People next to the slides help the machines to go without any stress.
