In 1988 a small group of individuals came together to create an online educational network that had as its purpose: "to enable young people to undertake projects designed to make a meaningful contribution to the health and welfare of the planet and its people." Envisioning a world in which young people could use technology to collaborate to change the world, these educators sought to harness the power of the Internet for good.

In 2015, iEARN (International Education and Resource Network), now with organizations in 140 countries and linking millions of young people daily in online collaboration and engagement, launched a major effort to mobilize its global network and other global education partners to realize the world's new 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a set of targets relating to future international development. See http://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/sustainab... for a full list of the SDGs and the targets of each.

In August 2015, iEARN also updated its "New Project Template" so that when an educator proposes a project, s/he will have an opportunity to include how their project proposal aligns with one or more of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Between 2000 and 2015, the world sought to meet the Millennium Development Goals with real, but limited success. To successfully reach the new Sustainable Development Goals, it will be important for organizations to work together. iEARN looks forward to collaborating with other educational networks, youth groups and community and faith-based organizations to attain these critical Goals.

Educators who are facilitating or participating in iEARN projects are encouraged to review the SDGs to see how their students' participating in iEARN project activities can help in achieving one or more of the SDGs and their 169 targets.

in this activity, we will simulate an oil spill with water and detergent. We will be able to experience just how difficult it is to remove the detergent and its effects on native fauna (like feathers and fur!). The magical world of the Octonauts will never be the same with oil spills and ocean pollution, so we need to protect them!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
This protect our oceans oil spill activity is a really fun, hands-on activity that teaches kids about how oil spills happen, their effects on ocean habitats, and how difficult they are to clean up.

It is deceptively simple, but the experience packs a big learning punch and had a large emotional impact on my son (who I refer to as Onetime).

I also have a roundup of 10+ ocean learning activities for kids that will inspire kids to appreciate our oceans and naturally help them to want to protect them as well!
Today's post includes Amazon Affiliate links. Read our Disclosure for more details.
On a recent holiday to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, my family enjoyed a week of beach combing, sandcastle building, and dipping our toes in the salty Atlantic.

Although we didn't actually swim (way too cold still!), we did spend nearly every day by the seaside. Onetime had lots of questions about the ocean, what lives in it, and how the tides work and why.

One morning, we were walking along the beach and Onetime noticed some whitish-red foam washing up on the seashore. "What is that Mommy?" he asked, and we began to discuss water pollution.

Back at home, we came across a blurb in a water pollution book about oil spills, and I realized that Onetime needed a hands-on way to understand the effect of this kind of problem and so my brain conjured up this fun (and truly powerful) activity.

Reasons to Inspire Our Kids to Protect the Ocean

While learning about the ocean along with my son, we learned a few important facts that you may want to share with your kids too.

1. Oceans cover 71% of our Earth.

2. Phytoplankton that live in the ocean create 50 to 85% of the oxygen we breathe.

3. Our oceans are becoming increasingly polluted and damaged by garbage, chemical waste, overfishing, and oil spills. See our Polluted Ocean Sensory Bin and learn about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

4. There are dead zones in the oceans where no fish can survive because the water is so polluted.

5. These dead zones are growing in size every year - mostly because of things humans are doing to the ocean.

6. Even if we don't live close to the ocean, we can do things in our everyday lives that damage our oceans, or help protect them.

Great Reads to Spark the Curiosity

Before we do hands-on learning activities at my house, I like to read my son related books if possible. Prior to this activity, we read one awesome book that I highly recommend!
The Magic School Bus on the Ocean Floor
This fantastic mix of fiction and non-fiction gives kids a detailed idea of what kinds of plants and animals live below the waves - with a humorous plot line and fantastic illustrations!

We also read the first part of this next book - to introduce the idea of oil spills and the harm they can do to the ocean.
Oil Spill! (Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science)
Then, pausing in the book before it starts to discuss how oil spills are cleaned up, I asked Onetime if he wanted to try to clean up an oil spill himself? He was very excited to try!

Protect Our Oceans Oil Spill Activity

I took him to the kitchen where I had set up a miniature ocean in a large plastic tub container. I filled the bowl with water with blue food colouring, some plastic boats and sea creatures.

We used ALEX Toys Rub a Dub Magnetic Boats and Under The Sea! Plastic Sea Life Creatures

I let Onetime play with the ocean for a bit and then we decided to make our oil spill. Onetime crashed the boats together and I squirted in some olive oil!

Then - I asked Onetime to try and figure out how we were going to clean up the ocean.

His first idea was to "Scoop it out Mommy!" - so I got him a large soup ladle and he began trying to remove the oil in earnest.

When that didn't work, I suggested he try a paper towel to soak it up. We even tried a cloth diaper too - which of course didn't work.

Finally, Onetime suggested we try soap. So we squirted some dish detergent into the water and observed how the oil split up into smaller blobs, but didn't go away.

Lastly, Onetime wanted to try a sponge - to no avail. We then had a really deep discussion about how difficult it is to clean up oil spills.

Making Environmental Connections

I then asked my son how he thought our ocean animals were doing.

When he picked them up, he could feel them covered with oil and made a really sad face.

I then gave him a feather and told him to dip it into the water. We talked about how water birds also get covered with oil when there is a spill and he got even quieter (look at the face below!).

"Can we clean them up Mom?"

So - we tried.

We dipped another few feathers in the oil, and took them to the sink and washed them out with soap and even gave them a blow-dry!

Using a magnifying glass, I asked Onetime to compare the feathers that had been cleaned to ones that hadn't been covered in oil. It was clear that we couldn't get the feathers back the way they had been.

We talked about how many sea birds get hurt by oil spills and how there's not always someone there to clean them, and how they cannot fly after they've been coated in oil. Again - sad face.

Although that was the end of our activity - we didn't leave things on a depressing note.

We revisited our Oil Spill book and learned more about how spills are cleaned up, as well as about things we could do to help prevent oil spills from happening in the first place.

It was a powerfully educational activity that had a big impact on my son and I hope you give it a try!

Before:

Discussion with the kids:

Read the school lunch menu and think about where the school gets their food

Where does your family get their food?

Where do foods come from? (the grocery, the garden, etc.) Which out of the options is the most responsible/sustainable way to get your vegetables, and why? (have the kids choose)

During:

Read aloud. Focus #1: why are we growing vegetables instead of flowers?

Focus #2: vegetables > flowers (mom's lesson)

Unscramble the story book (make sure they can recognize the order of the story, check for reading comprehension)

After:

Everyone choose their favorite dish and have them go backward and see the process of how that dish was made (garden to plate).

# data[].attributes.body
Introduce vocab/key words that are more difficult (walk, drive, take the bus, etc). One teacher acts out the vocab as the other one teaches. Design a worksheet/note-taking worksheet to fill out as the class progresses. Students can team up to fill out the worksheet or we can fill out the information as we go.

This free ESL lesson plan on recycling has been designed for adults and young adults at an intermediate (B1/B2) to advanced (C1/C2) level and should last around 45 to 60 minutes for one student.

The world is facing serious environmental threats and recycling is one way we can help as individuals. Recycling reduces the need to exploit more natural resources, helps to prevent contamination and saves energy. However, many people still don't recycle, or their government does not provide them with the opportunity to recycle. In this ESL lesson plan on recycling, students will have the opportunity to discuss and express their opinions on issues such as why recycling is important, what material can be recycled and how recycling helps the environment.

This lesson plan could also be used with your students to debate these issues for Zero Waste Week, which takes place in September. For more lesson plans on international days and important holidays, see the calendar of world days to plan your classes for these special occasions.

For advice on how to use this English lesson plan and other lesson plans on this site, see the guide for ESL teachers.

PRE-CLASS ACTIVITIES

Reading activity
Before the English class, send the following article to the students and ask them to read it while making a list of any new vocabulary or phrases they find (explain any the students don't understand in the class):
Friends of the Earth | "7 benefits of recycling"
The article lists seven ways recycling can help to protect the environment including conservation of natural resources, protecting ecosystems and reducing carbon emissions. At the start of the class, hold a brief discussion about what the students thought about the article. Did the students already know any of this? Can they add any more benefits to the list?

Video activity
To save time in class for the conversation activities, the English teacher can ask the students to watch the video below and answer the listening questions in Section 3 of the lesson plan at home. There are intermediate listening questions and advanced listening questions so teachers can decide which would be more appropriate for their students. Check the answers in the class.

The video for this class is called "What really happens to the plastic you throw away" by TED Ed and explains the environmental problems caused by plastic bottles if they are not recycled.

IN-CLASS ACTIVITIES

The focus in the class is on conversation in order to help improve students' fluency and confidence when speaking in English as well as boosting their vocabulary.

This lesson opens with a short discussion about the article the students read before the class. Next, the students can give their opinion on the quote at the beginning of the lesson plan - what they think the quote means and if they agree with it. This is followed by an initial discussion on the topic including what the students recycle, what can and cannot be recycled and how more people can be encouraged to recycle.

After this, students will learn some vocabulary connected with recycling such as single-use, landfill and microplastics. This vocabulary has been chosen to boost the students' knowledge of less common vocabulary that could be useful for preparing for English exams like IELTS or TOEFL. The vocabulary is accompanied by a cloze activity and a speaking activity to test the students' comprehension of these words.

If the students didn't watch the video before the class, they can watch it after the vocabulary section and answer the listening questions. Before checking the answers, ask the students to give a brief summary of the video and what they thought about the content.

Finally, there is a more in-depth conversation about recycling. In this speaking activity, students will talk about issues such as how recycling can help the environment, countries that have good and bad records on recycling and how the world would look in the future if nobody recycled.

HOMEWORK

After the class, students will write about the importance of recycling. This could be a short paragraph or a longer piece of writing depending on what level the student is at. The writing activity is designed to allow students to practise and improve their grammar with the feedback from their teacher. For students who intend to take an international English exam such as IELTS or TOEFL, there is an alternative essay question to practise their essay-writing skills.
