1. When is the sky bright and clear?
2. What should we wear on a rainy day?

Frequently asked questions

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.

My child says pollution is only smoke. How do I widen that?

Point out water pollution and litter as well. A blocked drain or a bottle in a park are things children can see, and they make the idea broader than chimneys and vehicles.

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.
