Green Avengers
Okay so here’s the plan… It’s an interactive classroom where it really doesn’t change the classroom structure at all! In fact the best part is that the Green Avengers program takes the normal computer lab skills of any elementary school, and makes the normal type skill teaching also focused around learning life habits.
The idea has already been started, but it has no personality, to my knowledge. We need to give it unifying spunk! We need to build the creativity into our school systems to get children engaged, and then take a lesson from the advertising industry on what it means to brand cultural habits in the form of education, starting from the youngest form. This program is similar to DARE, only it’s more interactive, and it’s never separate from the normal lessons, as stated above. Take the time to read through this into script for the Green Avengers to see the fun, excitement, and education that all of our wonderful technology has the power to instill.
Beyond this fun point, take the time to see were the interactive ‘green’ classroom has already begun, by visiting this interesting read…
THE GREEN CLASSROOM
INTERACTIVE LESSON OVERVIEW:
1. Recycling and “What are Resources”
Teach kids the power of the environment by showing them what’s in it. Then explain how we use everything as a culture, and how we waste as a culture.
2. Water: One brush can waste to much!
This lesson is all about taking kids through a visual household to have them practice how to use water properly (IE turn it off when not using it), so they can share more eagerly with their parents.
The entire point of these lessons, after instilling behaviors, is that parents are more influenced by their children than by many other things. This is a chance to connect with adults in a “re-learning’ part of their life as well.
