For some time now, the Spanish teachers at Steinm\u00fchle\u2014Victoria Perez, Laura Cubillas, Mar Montenegro, and Mar\u00eda Ramos\u2014have been exploring the topic of upcycling to introduce students to this field. The question at hand was how to create new objects using existing resources. \u201cIn our view, this will be a matter of survival for future generations,\u201d Mar\u00eda Ramos explains in this context. The teachers are now giving the school community a glimpse into the students\u2019 activities through photos from the workshop. Using items that at first glance seemed more like \u201ctrash,\u201d the students have created all sorts of treasures, demonstrating great creativity through their imagination and skill. \u201cTruly amazing achievements,\u201d praise the teachers, who were delighted by the participants\u2019 thoughtful, self-reflective approach and also by how satisfied the students themselves were with their own efforts in the end. The activities took place at the end of the school year as part of the Society, Ecology, and Communication (G\u00d6K) project days. <\/p>\n
