the children age 4-6 years old. The activity included identify the various types of waste generated at the kindergarten and to
realize the conservation practice by participating in simple waste management strategies and an explanation about recycling,
reusing and reducing waste (3R). The activity provided the children more awareness about the importance of minimizing the
plastic wastes. The activity had created an interesting experience to the young generation through practice activity and has
given a light on the nature conservation along their growing years. It can be concluded that the awareness of environmental
issues among children have risen up as noted by looking at students physical expression. Children have understood the
potential to conserve nature from a simple action which is recycling. After the activity, children’s were able to identify and
divide the rubbish. |
