A fun activity (free!) for students, as they pretend to be an alien visitor to Earth. What do they notice that's unique about Earth? What are the Top Ten features of Earth?
Everything at the site is made of scrap or repurposed materials. America the Beautiful?, which is shown here, would be a good "all school" activity. Also, look for Build Your Own Trashasaurus Rex in the Sculpture section.
There are photos and a good explanation of landfills and how they're built, and you'll find many links to other helpful sites, too. Happy Earth Day!

I have self-published a children's chapter book,The Animal Seeker, to encourage kids to enjoy the out-of-doors and to learn about and appreciate nature, especially wildlife. It is available as an ebook but may also be downloaded. It is available through Smashwords, Barnes and Noble, Apple, Diesel, Kobo, and a few other distributors. It would be a great book to use as a springboard for environmental discussions. The following is a short synopsis. Thank you so much for taking a look.
Something mysterious is happening in the forest where ten-year-old Tommy and his dog, Nept, live. The animals are disappearing and Tommy and Nept must find them. They are about to encounter a strange visitor; his name is Fike and he comes from planet Arcturus. Fike is on a mission to replace something precious his planet has lost and Tommy's forest contains just the treasure he's wanting.
