Earth Day Acitivies

Earth Day is a great day to teach our students on how to help our planet. I have found several different resources for you to use with your SMARTBoard! Read the online book, Recycling. 
Click here for book.

Follow up Activity:  Students can use the SMARTBoard to complete the following activity!

Another Earth Day Activity for the SMARTBoard is called Energy Hogs.  With this activity, students learn how to make their own homes more environmentally friendly.

This activity, provided by National Geographic, gives students the ability to pick up trash at a park right in front of their SMARTBoard.

I taught 5th grade for 13 years and every year, I used the book, The Wump World by Bill Peet, to teach the importance of recycling.  I am including a link to the lesson for you to use on Earth Day!  You will find The Wump World and The Lorax lessons under the heading, Computers.

Here is a lesson for The Lorax, another favorite!  I loved the movie and I hope you love the lesson!






Be SMART and save a tree!!  Rhonda
