Lesson plans
The Surrey Environment Partnership has worked in collaboration with the Young People’s Trust for the Environment to produce a free package of resources for schools to use to teach four lessons to pupils about waste, recycling and the environment in Surrey.
The package includes slide presentations and guide documents with notes to use in conjunction with the slides, discussion points and suggested activities for each lesson. The lessons, which ideally should be delivered in sequence but also work as standalone lessons, are aimed at children in Upper Key Stage 2 (years 5 and 6). They can be downloaded for free below (files are downloaded as ZIP files containing 1 MS Powerpoint and 1 MS Word file).
Suez, the contractor responsible for disposing of Surrey’s waste and managing the county’s community recycling centres, also has a suite of STEM education resources for key stages 1-4, which includes two lesson presentations, resources to support the learning in teachers’ notes and interactive upcycling activities.
