Every day should be Earth Day, but the planet does get one special day to celebrate our fantastic planet every year. April 22nd is the day that we can hope that everyone is celebrating our incredible world.
Today I wanted to share some resources my PLN has shared to engage students in explorations connected to Planet Earth and the Environment.
Official Earth Day Page - Teacher Toolkits, Earth Day Quizzes, events, stories, and more to engage students. The site also has some great connections to additional resources from its partners. I've also organized a student activity.
