Lesson Plan

Saving the Wild: Conservation Around the World

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Enhance your unit on conservation, ecosystems, or migration with a series of lessons about ways to save the wild around the world. Kids research types of conservation, such as recycling, and use their geography skills to map the disappearing wetlands and migration route of gray whales. Additionally, they explore the ways a native species is affected when a non-native species is introduced.
