The learners organize a clean-up event in a defined area that needs work. They may use garden tools, collect garbage, or clean up dirty or graffiti areas.
The purpose of this lesson is to guide learners to participate in caring for our Earth by engaging in activities of environmental stewardship.
Young people recognize that nature is an important part of their world that needs their responsible care.
This lesson is a reflection on the beach clean-up experience.
With guidance from a local environmental agency, prepare the youth in advance of volunteering their time to clean up a lake or river for the common good. Arrange a field trip that includes picking up trash and recording the data.
Young people convince others to take care of the beach or protect the Earth. They write an essay or make an advocacy poster.
The learners identify a common area where trash accumulates and plan a clean-up project.
