Welcome to your first day on the job! Watch this video to see what a day in the life of an Trash and Recyclables Construction Specialist is like.

Does your household or school recycle? Hopefully yes, and if not start now! Then:

STEP 1: Go to your recycle bin and see what’s in there.

STEP 2: Based on what you have, how can these things be repurposed? What can you create with them? Here’s some ideas.

STEP 3: Pick or think of something cool that you can make using only the materials in your recycle bin.

STEP 4: Make it! Then share a picture of your creation in the Student Showcase to build your resume and show people cool things that can be created from recycled materials!
