Earth Day
Dec 23, 2014
With Earth Day quickly approaching I put together this conversational based lesson for my school. It was made for elementary ESL learners from grade 1 to 6. It is positive and focuses on what each child can do daily to make a difference. I hope you can enjoy it.

Time to do something!
What are these pictures trying to tell you?
Earth Day is on April 22nd, but really you should think about the Earth every day!
The first Earth Day was in 1970. The number of people who celebrated Earth Day in 1970 was 20 million people, in 2010, the number of people who celebrated it was 500 million.
Let’s join the fight!
Walk more, not only does it keep the air clean but it can keep you fit!
Turn it off if you’re not using it: lights, TV, computer, and more.
Buy more things made in Taiwan (food and other).
Plant a tree and keep more plants in your home, balcony and/or roof.
Don’t litter! When you throw your garbage on the ground it often ends up in rivers and the ocean.
Recycle paper, plastic, metals, and left over food garbage.
Bring your own bag when you go shopping.
Bring your own water bottle when you buy a tea from outside.
Bring your own containers when buying take-out food.
Turn the water off once you wet your toothbrush. Eat less meat. When washing the dishes, have one spot for washing and another
for rinsing. Don’t keep the water running to rinse the dishes.
More recycling and conserving ideas.Would you like to make any of these? Why?Can you think of anything else you could make to help recycle and conserve resources?
Did you know plastic bottles can take hundreds or thousands of years to decompose? Now this would be one STRONG broom.
