Ms. Lisa talks to the K-2 students about the importance of recycling
   batteries. 

   The use of rechargeable batteries helps to reduce the amount of
   batteries polluting our environment. This is the battery charger
   used to recharge the batteries that power our student cameras.

   The group performed an experiment to create a bio-battery
    using lemon juice and water mixture to light up a small LED
    light. This experiment introduced students to the idea that there
    are other natural resources available for energy use.

      Zinc and copper probes are placed in the lemon juice and water
     mixture to create a chemical reaction. This reaction creates a
     current of energy that moves through the connecting wires
     to power the small LED light.

     helps to remind the K-2 recycle group that the earthworm is
     one of the Earth's most valuable recyclers.

      The students focus on an activity sheet about recycling.
