Planning an Environmental Education Event

Strengthen your environmental community by inviting people who have helped your school become a more environmentally-friendly place!

Organization Checklist

  • Set aside a half day, or if possible, an entire day.

  • Set up one activity station for each class that is participating.

  • Organize rotations by division (grades 1, 2, and 3 classes rotate through the same activities, etc.)

  • Repeat a single activity several times in the same room, as students rotate, moving from classroom to classroom.

  • Have students from the Environment Club, other student leaders, and parent volunteers conduct students to various activities inside and outside of the school.

  • Primary and Junior activities are 40 minutes long. Intermediate activities are 60 minutes long.
