PEOPLE AND THE PLANET
Lessons for a Sustainable Future
CD-ROM
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
Combining environmental education and global studies, 30 interdisciplinary activities develop social studies, science, math, and communication skills while helping students understand population dynamics, global and community issues, and the interplay of people, resources, and environment.
Example activities: use a big scoop and a small scoop to demonstrate what happens when birth rates exceed death rates; stage a "hunger banquet" in which some students get much less to eat than other students do; and construct a miniature sanitary landfill to expose the limitations of that system of waste management. Includes reproducible student handouts. Answer keys are on teacher pages that spell out concepts, objectives, interdisciplinary subject areas, skills, materials, step-by-step procedures, discussion questions, follow-up activities, and matches to national content standards.
Quantities are limited.
