This little animation would be a really good resource to show students the kind of impact that littering has on our marine life. Over 1 million animals who live in the sea are killed each year by plastic debris that ends up in the ocean. #UoNTeach

This amazing book teaches young people that everything around us has a life cycle and it explores the different stages. By incorporating this into our teaching we are able to get our students to think about their #consuming, #recycling and #waste practices #UoNTeach

"Offering good reasons for reducing, reusing, and recycling, this book sketches an overall picture of the waste cycle, fills it with densely packed facts, and connects it with readers’ lives."

Did you know that in 2018-19 60% of littered items were made from plastic? The NSW Plastics Plan outlines the different ways reduce our usage and by working towards the banning of single use plastic products we are able to help protect the environment #UoNTeach

[Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure @nswdphi]

We have a plan to reduce plastic pollution in NSW, which includes phasing out single-use plastics like straws, bags and disposal cutlery. Tell us what you think at https://t.co/pWKn3yi7ef @NSW_EPA #CleaningUpOurAct

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

What a great initiative @woolworths! This would be a good stimulus to use in the classroom to get students to think about other ways big companies can do their bit for the environment. Why not get your students to write a letter to different companies to taking action? #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

Wow what a fantastic idea! Such a cool concept to teach students about. This is definitely a resource that every school should be utilising in their classrooms to educate teachers, students and their families about the importance of #sustainability #UoNTeach

[Madison Piercy @piercy_madison]

What an amazing way to reduce waste in the classroom! I am always wondering about ways in which we can reduce our waste impact on the earth, I think this is a great step in that direction. #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

The quote on this image is so powerful! I can imagine this having a big impact on students' lives when they think about the figures on this picture. If everyone were to perform a simple task like switching to a reusable coffee cup, together we can make a difference #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

Some good tips to send to your students and their families who are doing their schooling/work from home! Now is the perfect time to educate ourselves on #WasteReduction and #Recycling. It could also be a good time to start looking into composting (if you haven't already)#UoNTeach

[CalRecycle @CalRecycle]

Even if you need stay home for a while, you can always find ways to go green. #Reduce #Reuse #Recycle ♻️ For home composting tips, go our website: https://t.co/cvJ5xvveVY

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

The #PlasticsChallenge is a great idea to use for STEM as students can develop solutions to the problems caused by plastic waste. Such a good resource that targets #SDG12 in a creative way. #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

Here's an informative website that suggests some tips on how your students and their families can practice #wastereduction at home. Examples include buying/using less and also saying no to plastic products. Tip: don't forget your reusable bags! #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

It's so great to see celebrities like @NiallOfficial discuss things like #wastemanagement and #recycling on their social media platforms! What an excellent way to spread awareness and educate young fans on how they can do their bit for the environment #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

What a fun idea to utilise in the classroom or even at home! Teaching students through the use of visual arts is such a powerful tool that can really help to make a difference when it comes to #EnvironmentalSustainability #UoNTeach

[Carcroft School @CarcroftSchool]

✏️ Good Morning, why not try recycling your old plastic milk bottles and turning them into fabulous patchwork elephants? Remember to get an adult to help you with the cutting! ♻️🐘🥛 #CarcroftPrimary #Carcroft #Doncaster #Art

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

The facts from the National Plastics Summit 2020 have truly shocked me! By 2050 there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish by weight!! This is why it's so important to educate our youth on the importance of #recycling and #wastemanagement! Together we can do it! #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

What a great resource to show to a younger class as it explains the idea of #REUSING & #RECYCLING items through the beloved character, Thomas the Tank Engine. By using a familiar and popular character to explain an idea children are more likely to want to be involved #UoNTeach

Responsible consumption can reduce economic 🏦, environmental 🌿& social 🏙 costs. Help your child to learn about the importance of ♻ & reducing waste 👇! https://t.co/Mdy8DociUE

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

A powerful cartoon that promotes the idea of #ResponsibleConsumptionAndProduction in a way that informs and educates the public about things we #MUST do in order to ensure a sustainable lifestyle #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

What a great teaching tool to help students understand why it's important to recycle, how to recycle different items and the different ways that we can reuse objects to make new environmentally friendly things like a classroom recycling centre #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

Here's a good idea to get the students involved in recycling. By using second hand clothing we are able to reduce our #environmentalimpact through using more #sustainable method of fashion rather than buying and increasing production when we shop and throw away clothes #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

@Annabel52301684 What a great idea to get the school community involved in the different ways we can manage our waste and create a more sustainable way of living

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

@piercy_madison @WRWCanada What a great way to get the school community involved by educating everyone about the importance of reducing our waste! This is definitely something i'd love to integrate within my classroom.

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

What a great way to get the school community involved for those who are located near a beach or a waterway to raise awareness and achieve the goal of #ResponsibleConsumptionAndProduction! Very useful for me as a teacher especially living in a coastal town like Newcastle #UoNTeach

[Rachel Wysocki @RachelWysocki1]

This is such a great resource to use as it helps children understand what kind of materials we can and cannot recylce! Such an important way to communicate and educate future generations #UoNTeach
