This lesson could link with Global Recycling Day in March, but is also part of our Our Planet, Our Impact series and discusses preparing for leaving home/going to university and how to managed shared living to deal with waste disposal. The preliminary quiz on Forms (link to duplicate on the Teaching Notes) will give you some idea of the starting point for many students regarding their awareness of Bin Day, recycling where they currently live and their attitude to recycling and considering their actions. It also discusses ways to manage cooking and clothes shopping on a budget, not just to save money, but also to reduce waste, so lots of food for thought. There are optional discussion points and suggested video links so you can readily adapt the lesson to fit your time allocation.
This lesson is inspired by Stephen Lawrence Day in April and includes 2 other lessons for free to accompany it. This lesson includes opportunities for discussion around equality, dreams and aspirations, community awareness and careers and is accompanied by a lesson on Hate Crime and on Kindness. All the lessons are researched and the sources are credited in the Notes with each slide or in the final slide, which includes useful links for students.
This bundle includes a series of lessons to help young people prepare for living independently and having to deal with all kinds of new experiences, including:
Student finance and financial planning, cooking for yourself, managing your studies and exam stress, building your skills for employment and aiming to become a responsible citizen.
