Celebrate Earth Day with this engaging set of 3 Earth Day Planet vs Plastics Reading Comprehension Passages with multiple-choice questions. The passages are designed for grades 2, 3, 4, and 5 to enlighten young minds about the pressing issue of plastic pollution.

This year’s 2024 Earth Day theme is Planet vs Plastics. It is meant to educate the world on the escalating crisis of plastic pollution by challenging us to reflect on our consumption habits and encourage proactive steps toward a sustainable future free from the harmful effects of plastics on our planet.

So, to help the students learn about this important day, we have prepared the following passages;

• What is Plastic Pollution? This will help the students understand the alarming impact of plastic waste on our environment and animals.
• Single-use Plastics: What are they? The students will learn the truth about the convenience of single-use plastics and their long-lasting detriment to the planet.
• Plastic Recycling Process: This will help the students learn about the journey of recycling, from sorting to making new products, and how it helps combat plastic pollution.

Two passages are paired with thought-provoking multiple-choice questions and one passage has written response questions to assess comprehension. Answer keys are also included.

This resource is versatile and suitable for a variety of educational settings, from interactive class discussions to individual learning tasks.

Thank you for checking out my product! This makes a great review activity or for a sub plan!  It has three parts to it.  The first is an abiotic / biotic sort where the students drag each factor to the correct box.  The second is primary and secondary circles with scenarios presented and the students have to cut and paste the scenario in the correct circle.  The third is pioneer species.  There are six pictures, and the students have to move the correct pictures into the pioneer species rectangle.

This is a google slide so you could embed into a canvas assignment and each student could do it and then submit it.  It could be shared and then each student would have to make a copy in order to work in it then submit their own copy.

Looking for a fun way to help your students learn Cloud Types? Look no further! Start off with a Google Slides presentation covering definitions and examples, perfect for a whole group lesson! Then have your students practice with a 10 question Google Slides drag and drop sorting activity that can be easily uploaded into Google Classroom or printed to use with journals in a cut and glue activity. Lastly, check your student's understanding with a 10 question Google Form quick check! This product was created for 5th grade, but I think it could work well in other grades too!
