This lesson made us a bit friendlier to the environment. We looked aroud and realized that lots of improvements could be done by everyone.

I find this lesson specially useful for the development of a green consciousness in our students. I will try to carry it out with them next week and will tell you about its fulfilment. Thank you for such a good teaching material.

Hi sodawasser

Sorry to see you are having problems accessing the worksheet. I've just check the link here and it is working. Can you try again? If you have problems, try using a different browser (Chrome or Firefox etc.) and that should work.
Please let us know if you are still having problems.

Thanks
Cath
