Hi,
I have just started a blog: Ecological Tales for Environment Education-India. The blog is packed with ecological tales, lesson plans, activities, information… I have tried to make it as teacher-friendly as possible.
I believe storytelling is a powerful way to instill love and concern for the environment in children Stories can help introduce kids to new concepts, add depth to a lesson, and enliven any topic. Storytelling also gives an opportunity for emotional transformation as every story is designed to provide a moral message, which children take to heart.
If you happen to visit my blog, you will notice that it focuses on India. I have done it purposefully because I believe that environment education has to help children reconnect with their land-based cultures. Environmental education goes beyond global warming and waste management. For me it is a rediscovery of the wisdom of indigenous people and their ecological traditions.
