As a challenge, students can think more carefully about how exactly the item causes pollution.
This activity fits in well with a sustainability topic as well as linking it in to special environment days such as ‘Earth Day’.

Encourage your students to use all of their senses to help develop their descriptive writing.
For this activity your class need to be in pairs, where one will be blind folded and the other will safely lead them to an area in your school grounds or outdoor space (this activity is most effective when you have a variety of different places available for students to go).
The blindfolded student will then begin to describe what they can hear, smell, and touch while the other partner records what they are saying. The blind folded student will then be asked to guess where they think they are before removing the blindfold. Both students will then work together to describe and record what they can see.
Once they have finished, they can swap roles and do that activity again. Encourage students to think carefully about powerful descriptive language as they are describing the settings they have been taken to.

Develop your class’ report writing by getting them to observe nature in the world around them. They will head outside to find an animal to produce a report on, gathering their information through close observation and research.
Once they have decided on their animal, they need to begin their research through observation, books, and the internet, recording their findings on the sheets. It is best if your students have access to magnifying glasses for this activity.
When the research is complete, they can then write their report using the templates, or create their own unique design. It is good for students to go outside and capture their own photos to use within the report.
Resources needed:
Research sheets
Differentiated template sheet
Magnifying glasses
Books / technology for research (optional)
This resource can work well in pairs where students are able to support one another.

Take Thanksgiving into the outdoors with this reflective activity where your class will look at which natural things they are most thankful for. They will walk around the outdoor space, taking time to think about which things they are most thankful for and why.

It’s a great way for your students to gain a greater appreciation for the environment around them. This activity can lead onto nice discussions about how to care for the environment, thinking about what they can do locally to help.
