Definition: To break down and reuse component materials.

Alright class, settle in, let’s have a think, About recycling – what do you link? The dictionary’s right, it’s true, you see, “To break down and reuse,” that’s the key! Let's unpack that phrase, nice and slow, So the meaning clearly starts to flow. "Break down" means taking something apart, Like a cardboard box, a work of art! We separate the pieces, one by one, From plastic bottles 'til the job is done. And “reuse” is then what we must do, To give those materials a brand new view! Instead of ending up in landfill’s plight, They'll be transformed with all their might. Think paper scraps and glass so bright, Aluminum cans, shining light. We melt them down or chop them free, To make new products for you and me! So recycling isn't just a simple deed, It’s about resources we truly need. Saving energy, reducing waste, A better planet – that’s the taste! 😊 Do you have any questions about this rhyme? Would you like to talk about why recycling is so important?
