Physical Activities That Teach Healthy Environmental Concepts,"
teachers and youth leaders will find easy-to-present games and
activities to inspire and educate students about caring for the
environment.
Authors Carol Scaini and Carolyn Evans have created a range of
innovative activities to help students learn the value of reducing,
reusing, and recycling and explore concepts of carbon footprint
reduction, climate change, and global warming. "50 Games for Going
Green" includes
- warm-up, circuit, and station activities;
- physical fitness challenges, relay races, and literacy and
drama activities; and
- cooperative games.
A special Eco-Thoughts feature offers simple take-aways with
each activity, giving your students information to think about,
discuss, and act on. Easily adaptable for a range of ages,
abilities, and skill levels, this collection of activities will
help your students get moving, thinking, and working together while
learning what they can do to help the environment.
"50 Games for Going Green" makes learning a truly active
experience and gives you creative ways to help students get their
daily dose of moderate to vigorous physical activity. The
activities can be played in the gym, classroom, or outdoors and
require little or no equipment. Many activities repurpose everyday
recyclable items for play, such as cards from recycled paper, balls
from socks, and bowling pins from plastic bottles.
Detailed descriptions and illustrations make it easy to
understand how to teach each activity, and the game finder helps
you quickly choose the right one for each class. In addition, the
book's easy-to-follow format provides information for each activity
on equipment and setup requirements, instructions for play,
variations, and safety considerations.
Taking an active learning approach to environmental stewardship
makes caring for the Earth a tangible, memorable, and fun
experience. By encouraging students to get active and go green, "50
Games for Going Green" offers a hands-on way for students to
contribute to their physical health and improve the health of their
environment.
