How To Reduce Plastic Waste

This Term Rm 7 are trying to help our Ocean life; we have been thinking how to reduce plastic waste. We decided to make beeswax wrap and fabric bags as things we can use instead of plastic. We had parents come and help us out with both fabric bags and beeswax wrap. 

How to make beeswax wrap
 What you do is you cut out a piece of fabric then grate the beeswax onto it. Then put the baking paper underneath the fabric, and sprinkle beeswax all over the fabric and then put baking paper on the top and get an iron and melt the beeswax.
Then you have something reusable and that doesn't kill ocean life. you can use beeswax wrap instead of glad wrap.  Here are some pictures of what I made.

    Well done for writing about the projects we have been making in class to try to help us to reduce the amount of plastic waste we make. I like how you explained how to make the beeswax wrap. I have been impressed with the effort you have been making to reduce the amount of plastic waste in your lunchbox. Have you been using your beeswax cloth wrap?
