This article is very interesting because it talks about the importance there is when it comes to teaching and learning about our environment. It shows that there are different resources for students and teachers in order to learn about the environment. There are daily lesson plans that can be included daily in the classroom in order for students to learn the importance of the environment. One of the things that interested me the most is the program that is offered for students who go to school mainly in the city and do not interact daily with the environment. The fact that teachers takes the time to take their students into the environment and show them get a more advanced education about the environment. Though this program is mainly focused for students between 3-5 grades, it can also be implemented in higher grades.
Teaching students and teachers as well about the importance of the environment is a great step in helping the world with its environmental hazards.
Q1: Why is it so important to teach students the importance of the environment?
A1: The importance of teaching our students about the environment is that from an early age we can implement in them the different responsibilities there are about taking care of the world.
Q2: Is there a benefit in implementing environmental lesson into the daily plans of class?
A2: Yes there is. I think that it is very important to implement the environmental issues in daily lesson plans so that students, and teachers as well have a better understanding and an idea of what is going on in the world. And what better way than teach it to students everyday.
