This teacher guide is designed for K-2 educators to facilitate an Earth Day litter lesson aimed at instilling environmental stewardship in young students. It includes a list of materials necessary for a cleanup activity such as gloves, trash bags, and sorting handouts. The preparation section outlines the need for a safe area for cleanup and emphasizes safety protocols. The learning goal is to help students understand their role in keeping the planet healthy and clean, discussing what litter is and its harmful effects on animals.
