How to use this worksheet

Finish by choosing one action from the worksheet to actually do for the rest of the week - turning off a tap while brushing teeth, or carrying litter to a bin. At Grade 2 the aim of this topic is habit as much as knowledge, and one kept promise teaches more than a full page of correct answers.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. What do rivers contain?
2. What pollutes the air?

Frequently asked questions

Does the worksheet need any craft materials?

No, pencil and paper are enough. Having a few household items nearby to sort makes the material questions easier but is entirely optional.

Will this frighten a sensitive child?

The tone stays practical and hopeful - mostly what we can do rather than what is going wrong - because Grade 2 students respond to actions they can take themselves.

Is this topic just about recycling?

No. Grade 2 environment worksheets cover saving water and electricity, litter, clean air and water, and the role of trees. Recycling is one part of a wider set of everyday habits.
