A lot of EcoKids are learning English while learning about the environment, especially in the bigger cities. We've created some environmentally focused ESL lesson plans for teachers to use in their classrooms.
We want to hear from teachers about the quality and usefulness of these lesson plans. Please send your comments to eko@earthday.ca. A special thank you to those who gave us valuable feedback about our ESL materials.
