What is Earth Day?

Earth Day is an annual event celebrated worldwide to demonstrate support for environmental protection. It serves as a reminder of our responsibility to safeguard our planet for future generations.

Why do we celebrate Earth Day?

Earth Day is celebrated to raise awareness about environmental issues such as pollution, deforestation, climate change, and endangered species. It encourages individuals, communities, and governments to take action to preserve and protect the Earth’s natural resources.

Why is Earth Day important?

Earth Day is crucial because it brings people together to advocate for sustainable practices and policies. By promoting environmental awareness and activism, Earth Day plays a vital role in inspiring positive change and fostering a deeper connection between humanity and the planet.

This 90-minute lesson plan will help you teach your A1-A2 students basic facts about Earth Day in a very communicative way. The video 'What Is Earth Day?' is used throughout. There are many activities designed especially for levels A1-A2, and the answers are provided at the end.

Looking for a simple worksheet for students to complete while watching episode 7 of Our Planet: Fresh Water?

Our Planet is a British nature documentary series made for Netflix.

Netflix has the free episodes of their Our Planet series on YouTube. Each episode is between 49 to 51 minutes long. I usually have students vote on which one they want to watch. You do NOT have to watch them in order.
