Each year in the week before Earth Day the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency launches a program called National Environmental Education Week, offering resources for kids, teachers and families to use in order "to get involved in lessons and activities that teach valuable environmental skills."

EE Week inspires environmental learning and stewardship among K-12 students by connecting educators with environmental resources to promote students’  understanding of the environment. The website offers Teacher Resources including lesson plans, a promotional tool kit, and a video message from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa Jackson which explains the scope of the program.

These are free resources,  available to all. Explore and enjoy!
