We made them into skipping ropes! It turned out to be quite a full on process but we persevered and ended up with a durable, workable skipping rope - and it's waterproof!

Green week fun
This week we have been having a great time enjoying our green week activities. We looked at finding other ways to use plastic bags rather than throwing them into our already overused landfill.

Hi my name is Elham from Gilberthorpe School.
ReplyDeleteIt look so much fun and I think it's called working together.I want to do this with my friends and my class too.
What do you mean by our green week activities?
Hi my name is Nadia and I like how you found a way to use plastic bags but maybe next time you could tell me how you created it? I would love to know.
ReplyDeleteBy the way I think it was a great and fun idea.:)

Hey, I absolutely love this idea! It's creative and it helps with less pollution. It also looks really fun to create and use. If everyone made skipping ropes with plastic bags, there would be less pollution, which is great for the environment. I really would like to know how you make a skipping rope out of plastic bags, because it is a fascinating way to recycle.
ReplyDeletehi my name is Alex and im from st Patricks school and it looks like you had so much fun building it but what stuff do you make them out of it look like you made it out of lots of paper. ;)

ReplyDeleteHi there Room 22. Well done on trying to use things rather than throw them in the bin. It looks like you had fun skipping. We are doing something called genius hour where we come up with a question to help save the environment. I have a question. How did you make the skipping ropes? and where can I find a website to make skipping ropes.

Hello Room 22 its Rem here from St Patrick's I enjoyed checking out your green week post. Looks like you all had fun recycling and making sports gear out of it instead of it going to a landfill.

ReplyDeleteI think it's so cool how you made skipping rope's out of plastic bags. I especially like skipping ropes, they're quite fun to use, and it looks really fun. Maybe next time it would be a good idea to put on how you made them. Bye :)
