Project Presentation

 

The aim of our environmentally friendly school project is to raise an environmentally conscious generation. With this project, we aim to increase environmental awareness in students, protect nature, save energy, acquire recycling habits and adopt sustainable lifestyles. In our environmentally friendly schools, we will use energy and water resources efficiently, reduce the amount of waste, and contribute to the education of students as individuals with high ecological awareness who are in touch with nature. By organizing various trainings and events in line with these purposes, we will ensure that students become individuals who are sensitive to environmental problems and produce solutions.

GOALS AND OBJECTİVES

The goal of our environmentally friendly school project is to instill environmental awareness in students, teachers and all school employees and to make them adopt the necessary behaviors for a sustainable future. This goal will be supported by various applications

* Sustainability: Reducing waste and protecting natural resources by using all resources of the school (energy, water, paper, etc.) effectively.

 * Environmental Awareness: To provide education to students about the importance of nature, environmental problems and solutions.

 * Participation: Ensuring the active participation of the entire school in environmental protection activities.

 * Being an example: To be an example to the society regarding the environment and to popularize environmentally friendly practices.
* Zero Waste: Encouraging recycling and instilling waste separation habits by minimizing the amount of waste produced at school.

 * Energy Efficiency: Reducing energy consumption by taking energy efficiency measures in school buildings.

 * Green Areas: Increasing green areas in the school garden and protecting biodiversity.

* Nature walks and environmental cleaning activities: To ensure that students are in contact with nature and to increase their environmental awareness.

As a result, being an environmentally friendly school is not just a goal but also a way of life. Students who grow up with environmental awareness will contribute to society as more conscious and responsible individuals in the future.

CURRİCULUM AND CROSS-CURRİCULAR İNTEGRATİON

* Science: Topics such as recycling, waste management, water conservation, energy efficiency can be reinforced with experiments and observations.

* Social Studies: Historical and social dimensions of environmental problems can be examined, and different cultures' approaches to the environment can be compared.

* Mathematics: Environmental data can be analyzed, and mathematical models can be created for sustainable development goals.

* Language: Texts on the environment can be read, and students can express their thoughts through writing and speaking activities.

* Visual Arts: Works of art can be created using recycled materials, and posters on the environment can be designed.

Integration Between Curricula

By bringing different disciplines together, learning becomes more meaningful and permanent knowledge is acquired.

 * Science and Turkish: Students can present the data they obtain as a result of their experiments in a report.

* Social Studies and Visual Arts: They can research projects on environmental problems in different countries and prepare posters.

* Mathematics and Science: They can create graphs and tables by examining the variety of plants in a school garden. Project Examples
