In previous Sustainable Wednesday posts, we’ve discussed how to incorporate eco-consciousness into language curricula and classroom activities. So what better way to demonstrate this than by introducing a comprehensive collection of resources put together by our partners over at Green Standards Schools? Let’s find out more about it!

Resources for every learner

Teachers in the international education industry have the unique opportunity to raise awareness of environmental issues and inspire learners to make positive change. The detailed lesson plans in this collection are designed so that language teachers worldwide can make the integration of sustainability into classrooms much easier. Available from levels A1 to C2, these resources come in a diverse range of languages, including English, Spanish, and French, for teachers looking to inspire students to embrace eco-friendly practices as well as master their language skills.

Engaging learning experiences

Within the collection, educators can choose from lesson plans aimed at improving specific key areas, from reading and vocabulary skills to grammar exercises and writing prompts. Each lesson plan carefully integrates sustainability themes to deepen students' understanding of the pressing environmental issues we face today, such as endangered species, climate change, recycling and composting, and more. Lessons in the collection also come in varied formats, including thought-provoking video and reading lessons and interactive activities, ensuring learners remain engaged while exploring eco-conscious concepts.

So what are you waiting for?
