As an environmental educator specializing in California
forests, I've been busy helping people prepare for both
Arbor Day event and now Earth Day. I find it it easy to
find projects to teach students to love trees and equally
easy to get them to understand the importance of wise use
of natural resources, but especially in the elementary age
groups, it's hard to help them understand the importance
of managing forests for forest health and for the products
they use in their daily lives, even excluding the concept
of renewability and sustainable practices. It seems many
lessons, skip right over that and take the easy way out.
Lessons about The Lorax are notorious for that. Anyone
have good ideas or resources to counteract this?
