Earth Club Lesson Plans

Want to get an Earth Club started at your school or community center? Need a fun idea to get kids thinking about the environment? Here are some lesson plans and activities that you can use with your group. Most are designed for early elementary-aged students, but can also be easily modified for older or younger kids. A great way to get middle and high schoolers involved is to have them lead Earth Club as a community service or service learning project! Have fun!!!
