SortItOut! Resources


Sort It Out! is designed to tie into the Waste in Our World Grade 4 Science Curriculum, by showing how waste flows through our cities and towns, using Edmonton, Alberta, Canada as an example.

The package features three posters; an overview of the City of Edmonton's waste system, the facilities and processes at the Edmonton Waste Management Centre, and household hazardous waste disposal at an Edmonton Eco-Station and in a small town. Each poster is filled with examples of good waste management practices in a way that lets students make a game out of learning.

An activity booklet, aimed at grade 4 students, accompanies the posters and contains a number of related activities that can be photocopied as worksheets for your students.
