520 1  "Teaching young people the knowledge, skills, and values 
       of active environmental citizenship is a crucial component
       of education in the 21st century. The challenge at the 
       middle school level is to find developmentally appropriate
       teaching ideas that challenge and engage students mentally,
       physically, and emotionally." "The book offers 50 kid-
       tested teaching strategies that promote interdisciplinary 
       hands-on learning about natural systems and foster 
       critical thinking about environmental issues, both local 
       and global. Richly illustrated, and including a helpful 
       curriculum index, this book of contributions from over 60 
       educators from across North America has been edited by the
       award-winning Green Teacher magazine team. It is sure to 
       appeal to a wide range of teachers, educators and parents 
       seeking innovative ideas for incorporating green themes 
       into their programs."--Jacket.
