Plan a day of outdoor activities that connects environmental action with learning.

Tips:

  • Have different classrooms plan and lead eco-games (such as waste-sorting challenges, biodiversity blitzes) during the day. This is an excellent way to establish peer-to-peer learning.
  • Hold an environmental scavenger hunt or an all-school Jeopardy game where students test their knowledge or get to know the local environment.
  • Get outside in winter, too: hold a class competition to build creative snow sculptures, learn about snowshoeing, and bring reusable mugs to warm up with hot chocolate.
