Plan to invite people that help protect the environment to come to your class to talk to the children about the outdoor environment. Some ideas include professional gardeners to take the children outdoors to discuss what plants need. Plan to plant seeds together. Take pictures to create a class book. A wildlife specialist can talk about how we can help keep our animals from becoming extinct. A marine biologist can talk about how to keep our oceans safe and clean for all water creatures. A local environmentalist can walk with the children during outdoor time to discuss how they work to protect the environment.
