Abstract

The amount of damage that has been caused by waste as a form of human indifference to the environment requires real action to deal with it. Various efforts have been made to reduce waste in Indonesia.

This study aims to analyze the suitability of the material for making handicrafts with the 3R principle. This study uses a qualitative descriptive research method with content analysis techniques. The data source is the Student Book for 1st grade to 6th of elementary school Curriculum 2013. The research instrument used is a checklist containing the criteria for the suitability of craft-making materials with 3R principles.
