Make a SPLASH with your students with this immersive fishing game focused on teaching young kids the difference between trash and recyclable materials. Students will explore the ocean depths, casting a line to catch fish, trash, or recyclables. But the real challenge comes after the catch – sorting your haul into the appropriate bins: trash can, recycling bin, or releasing the animal back into the sea. Children will learn the vital importance of protecting marine life and how their actions can help preserve our oceans. Join the mission to become an Eco-Fisherman and make a difference today!

• A detailed game plan (2 pages)
