What can we do to save our planet?

To talk about the Environment to my students, this time I have created a simple Emaze online presentation.

Emaze is a very interesting web tool, you can select a pre-designed template (or make your own slides from scratch) and easily create your presentation (slideshow, video and even a 3D presentation) by adding text, images, charts and videos.

You can also save the presentation to view it offline.

This work is just a starting point to talk about many topics related to the environment. Students will learn:

the meaning of the word environment
to consider that we belong to a global community which shares resources
to become more responsible and care about the planet Earth
to think critically about the impact of people on their planet
to take some real actions for the environment
to understand the importance of reducing, reusing, recycling

Earth Day - A message from the space...

April, 22 is Earth Day! This day is dedicated to the protection of the environment. Every year more than a billion people in many countries of the world take action to save their planet. During Earth Day celebrations people are informed of ways they can help protect their environment and their natural resources.

Surf the Earth Day website
http://www.earthday.org/greencities/earth-day-2014/

and watch their video

On the occasion of the Earth Day I have created an interactive infographic using Piktochart (http://piktochart.com/).

It's a work I prepared with my students. We imagined to receive a message from the space ... Someone from a distant planet in the universe wants to warn us...
