The lesson “Protecting the Land” teaches children the meaning of erosion through a hands-on activity, along with the two different types that exist: water and wind (or coastal for areas near the ocean). The children will learn how to recognize local examples of erosion and discuss simple ways to prevent it. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 18th lesson in the 1st Year “Understanding Pollution” unit.
