Project Learning Tree has just released an updated version of its signature K-8 Environmental Education Activity Guide. "Explore Your Environment: K-8 Activity Guide" offers educators a wide variety of engaging, hands-on activities, organized into grade bands: K-2, 3-5, and 6-8.
Topics include trees and forests, wildlife, water, air, energy, waste, climate change, invasive species, community planning, and more. The activities encompass the economic, ecological, and social aspects of environmental issues and are designed to help students learn how to think, not what to think.
The activities are suitable for use in formal classrooms and nonformal settings, and several are particularly suited to exploring urban environments.
