DownloadLesson Plans
In collaboration with Cool Australia and Teachstarter, we have created a nature care kids activity booklet and two new lesson plans. The lessons focus on the themes of mindfulness and biodiversity.
Every tree has a story to tell. This year's lesson will instruct students on how to view trees as a guide to story structures and how to use trees and wildlife as characters in stories from their local environment to celebrate Schools Tree Day. They use trees as both metaphor and subject for crafting a narrative, using their creativity and their connections to native wildlife.
Trees and The Elements (Years 4-6)
Trees give us oxygen, store carbon, provide us with materials and support wildlife. To provide these services, trees rely on a range of environmental elements to survive and thrive. Students will investigate the relationship between trees and elements and also create a poster showing the interactions between trees and air, light, fire, earth and water.
