🔍 Can you Spy the Trash – Worksheet

In this worksheet, students are encouraged to spy on all the different types of trash. They are asked to color code the garbage into their groups to show their understanding of the appropriate bins to use. The recycling containers included in this worksheet include a recycling bin, trash can, and compost bin.

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding  

To challenge students further, have them create their own I Spy worksheet using other types of rubbish materials on the backside of this worksheet. 

For students who need some extra support, you may like to do this in small groups where the students work together to spy and sort the pieces of trash on the worksheet.
