Lesson Summary
A new report by Planet Ark has revealed that time spent in nature has amazing benefits for our health and wellbeing. In this lesson students will watch a short video to find out what some of the benefits are and analyse how the message of the video is conveyed. Students critically assess their own activities on an average day and consider ways that they could spend more time in nature. Students then apply their understanding of the issue to the creation of their own short video that advocates the health and wellbeing benefits of time in nature. Teachers are encouraged to share the videos with Planet Ark.
