Discovery Questions

  • Look at the trash in your house. How many of those items could be recycled? If you recycled all the recyclables, how much trash would be left? Discuss the ways you could recycle more with a parent.
  • After reading about the various kinds of energy, pick one you learned about. Describe how it works to a parent. Check back with the book to see if there was anything you forgot!
  • This book believes in global warming. Do you? Does your family? Look at the pages 12-13. How many of these changes will effect you and your family? Discuss this with an adult.
  • With the help of an adult, start a recycling program where there isn’t any now. It could be at a school, church, library, or even a local business. Have your friends help!
