<p>This resource is aimed at parents who are either home-schooling or simply looking for educational activities to keep the kids entertained while they are at home during school holidays.</p>
<p>There are activities and worksheets suitable for children of all ages to do both indoors and outdoors. The aim of each activity is to teach children any of the following topics: recycling, resource management and sustainability.</p>
<p>The Compost Curriculum contains help, advice and a series of lesson plans for each month of the year to help you begin or make the most of your school compost bin.</p>
<p>Although created for schools in Devon, much of the information is relevant to schools everywhere. Check out the website: <a href="https://zone.recycledevon.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://zone.recycledevon.org/</a> for more information.</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter if you are a complete beginner, or a seasoned rotter; whether you have a ‘state of the art’ food waste composter, or a neglected plastic ‘Dalek’ in the corner of the playground.</p>
<p>This handbook supports teachers to use composting as an inspiring teaching resource throughout the school year. For each month it contains a curriculum-linked KS2 lesson plan and an Eco Team activity, plus a wealth of supporting documents to bring composting to life for adults and pupils.</p>
