American
Plastics Council
The American Plastics Council is the founding partner of NMLSTA,
and has supported plastic education outreach through NMLSTA since
1992.
NMLSTA very much appreciates the long term relationship with
the APC and looks forward to working with the ACC in the future.
The APC is a national trade association representing 26 of the
nation's largest resin producers. Founded in 1988, APC works to
make plastics a preferred material by demonstrating they are a
responsible choice in a more environmentally conscious world.
APC has produced thousands of "Hands On Plastics" Kits,
which was written by NMLSTA members, and are free to members of
NMLSTA. They also support workshops where teachers can experience
the learning cycle activities promoted in the kit. The APC grants
to this organization have helped to promote middle level science
education through workshops and breakfasts at NSTA Conventions
as well as educate us about the properties, uses, and disposal
of plastics in our environment.
Visit the American
Plastics Council website or the Hands-on Kit section of this
web site for more information on the Hands-on Plastics kits!
  
Better yet, come to a Hands-on Plastics
Workshop at the next or nearest NSTA convention soon!
