Lesson Plan - Garbage And The Impact Of Scale, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 04: Hazardous Waste
The main purpose of this lesson is to introduce garbage by way of exploring the concept of scale. The lesson begins by having students define garbage. Students will then think about their own garbage production. Their individual production will then be used to estimate garbage production at different spatial scales. In an optional activity, students can also explore how garbage and its management have changed over time.

Lesson Plan - Where Does Our Garbage Go?, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 04: Hazardous Waste
In this lesson, students will explore what happens to garbage after it is thrown away. The first activity looks at the garbage itself. Garbage will be classified as either biodegradable or not, and connected to the principle of the conservation of matter. The second activity concerns garbage disposal methods. Students will participate in a jigsaw activity where they learn about one garbage disposal system, and then will teach their peers about the different systems. The focus will be on the advantages and disadvantages of each method. The third activity is a debate which shows that garbage disposal issues can disproportionately …

Module 04: Hazardous Waste
The main purpose of this lesson is to demonstrate the idea that the things we throw away may harm other organisms. This lesson uses a brainstorming activity, and a lab experiment testing the effect of toxins on brine shrimp. This lesson also introduces the major pathways through which hazardous waste enter aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and provides an overview of the impacts of wastes such as heavy metal ions, strong acids or bases, and persistent organic compounds on plants and animals.

Module 04: Hazardous Waste
In this lesson, students will learn about the distinction between hazardous waste and other forms of waste as well as discuss the current challenges we face in finding ways to safely dispose of this waste. First, students will discuss their own conceptions of hazardous waste. Then, they will view a teacher-directed PowerPoint which provides additional information about hazardous waste. The lesson then concludes with the viewing of videos that relate to e-waste management issues.

Module 04: Hazardous Waste
This lesson continues on the topic of ecological impacts of hazardous waste and focuses specifically on the process of biomagnification. Students will read a case study about mercury poisoning in Minimata, Japan. Students will construct a food web diagram of a Minimata Bay ecosystem and then they will create a graph of mercury concentrations versus food chain position. This lesson also incorporates the idea of environmental justice.

Lesson Plan - Cities As Systems, Center For Urban Resilience
Lesson Plan - Cities As Systems, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 01: Introduction to Urban Ecology
This lesson is designed to elicit student preconceptions about cities, introduce the idea of cities as systems, and introduce the driving question for the entire year. The lesson begins with a brainstorm where the teacher leads a “word splash” about the word city. Then in order to encourage students to start thinking of cities as systems, student groups draw up plans (or construct models) of city neighborhoods and work to fit these neighborhoods into a city. To understand the time aspect of systems (and cities), these student groups are provided with imaginary (but possible) events that happen to their constructed …
