Grade 2 Social Studies - RW 2.3 lesson 4 (c) What Can You do? - Notebook File
This lesson asks students to look at their habits and lifestyles and develop an action plan that will support sustainability.
Grade 2 Social Studies Resources and Wealth (RW 2.3 lesson 1)
This lesson introduces students to the concept of sustainability. The first two pages provide teachers with the outcome, indicators, big ideas, and I Can statement for RW 2.3.
Exploring “renewal” and “regeneration” through a holistic perspective, this project presents these concepts through the lens of sustainability. Students make connections to these concepts in the classroom and on the land. Whether they are exploring the impact of fires and controlled burns on the ecosystem or considering ways to regenerate and heal from trauma, students will have the opportunity to consider the many ways that people and the environment can rejuvenate in the wake of real or perceived destruction.In this folder, you will find:1.

Due to the region’s extreme climate, the Yellowknife Co-op relied on imported produce from the South. This video shows the use of Growcer units to allow isolated communities to produce fresh produce year-round.
Students learn about the human water cycle, or how humans impact the water cycle by settling down in civilizations. Specifically, they learn how people obtain, use and dispose of water. Students also learn about shortages of treated, clean and safe water and learn about ways that engineers address this issue through water conservation and graywater recycling.
Journey 2050 allows schools around the world to experience agriculture like it has never been taught before. As students explore world food sustainability, they make inquiry-based decisions to see the ripple effect on social, economic and environmental factors locally and globally. Agricultural experts and real farm families from Kenya, India and Canada guide students through a virtual farm simulation, avatar career game and geography scavenger hunt.
This video from the Saskatchewanwanderer explores large-scale irrigation at Golden Dee Farms by Outlook, Saskatchewan.

Students are introduced to the correct technical vocabulary for lighting, which is different than layperson's terms. They learn about lamp (light bulb) technology and how to identify the various types of lighting in their spaces. They are also introduced to lighting controls as a means for saving energy- reducing costs, human energy consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions on the environment. Using an accompanying worksheet, students embark on a guided audit in which they survey the lighting in their classroom and identify the potential savings from using controls.
Plastic is in the ocean. We all know it. But how did it get there? Why did no one see it coming? Is it really that big of a problem? Learn more through exploring this interactive map and receive challenges to help you tackle the plastic problem in your own community.
The #MyFoodChoice resource is an inquiry-based resource answering the overall question of "How can I make informed food choices?" This resources has videos, interactive student sheets, approved resources and more. It is aimed at grade 9-12 students in subjects such as science, food studies, English, agriculture, social studies, humanities to name a few.
Nutrient Management is managing the use of nutrients to reduce environmental impacts. This video explores how Guy Choiniere in Highgate Center, VT, is using this practice to create a dry manure system to feed the soil on his certified organic farm.
Major benefits of this practice include soil improvement, salinity reduction, improvement of water quality, input cost reduction, and overall plant health increase.
Ocean Heroes Bootcamp empowers existing and emerging youth leaders to create their own campaigns to take action against ocean plastic pollution. Through a collaboration with a group of ocean health organizing partners, the Ocean Heroes Bootcamp provides youth with the skills, resources, and confidence to create campaigns to tackle single-use plastic pollution in their communities. Ocean Heroes HQ fosters a globally connected community of youth around one central goal: to create and implement campaigns that permanently reduce plastic pollution. Campaigns created by Ocean Heroes support the achievement of UN SDG 14.1, “By 2025, prevent and significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds, in particular from land-based activities, including marine debris and nutrient pollution.” Campaigns also support the Clean Seas campaign of organizing partner UN Environment.
The Remote Network of Ocean Heroes is a free, open-source curriculum designed to enable ocean health organizations, education institutions, and passionate communities to implement the Ocean Heroes Bootcamp content seamlessly into their youth programs.
One of the many things that make Ocean School's content library so special is how our content spans across a wide range of subjects. In the same learning resource, students can learn different concepts related to science and technology, English language arts, social studies, mathematics, and more.
