Kids, let's go play with the eco-environment!
Description
Book Introduction
Now, in the post-corona era,
Ecological education is an essential future education that must be implemented immediately!
For many years, the author has been practicing 'living' ecological education with children, where they can see, hear, touch, and feel the environment by walking around mountains, fields, and schools with them.
This book contains a variety of vivid and realistic ecological experiences he conducted with his students.
The ecological education presented in the book starts in the classroom (reading ecological books, natural dyeing, creating ecological software, staging plays with ecological themes, etc.), expands to school (observing school plants, growing rice in box fields, utilizing school gardens, etc.), outside of school (going on ecological explorations to mountains, fields, rivers, wetlands, and rice fields), eco-life (reducing plastic waste, disposable products, and fine dust, etc.), and finally, vividly captures the entire process of becoming an ecological guardian and reaching out into the world through experiential activities (making ecological poetry collections, picture books, and comic books).
This book covers everything from planning ecological education that can be integrated into the curriculum to specific activity guides. All courses are comprised of vivid experiential activities for students.
This will be of great help in many ways to parents, teachers, and experts who want to practice ecological education.
In particular, the original files of lesson activity sheets for ecological environment classes provided via QR codes will provide the author's know-how to easily practice the 'experience-centered' classes he has been researching for many years.
This book also provides a look at blended lesson designs and activities for ecological education applicable to educational environments that have changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The author predicts that the impact that ecological education will have on our future will be greater than we can imagine.
I am confident that children who receive ecological education will be able to create a healthy future by considering the coexistence of nature and humanity, and I hope that this book will serve as a foundation for that future.

Into the book
We must save the Earth.
We must save the Earth's environment.
To achieve this, restoring the ecosystem is of utmost importance.
To this end, everyone on Earth, from individuals to nations, feels the urgent need for ecological education.
It is important to find education that allows humans and nature to coexist and interact with each other.
We believe that when today's students, who have received this education, become adults and leaders of the future society, they will be able to present a practical solution for coexistence between nature and humanity, not just words.
--- p.10
What kinds of ecological activities can we do with students, both inside and outside the classroom? It might seem vague, but there are actually far more than we realize.
Ecological play can be done using various teaching aids in the classroom, or teachers can create and run play by reorganizing the curriculum.
--- p.48
By using natural dyeing, students can discover aesthetic value from the colors of nature and develop a sensibility friendly to nature.
Additionally, students can develop the ability to express their own feelings and thoughts creatively and independently, and realize the value of an ecological environment where nature and humans can coexist.
--- p.67
Students can easily learn block-based coding software such as Scratch or Entry, which they learned in home economics or computer classes at school, and use them for ecological education.
Coding ecological stories with software can be another enjoyable experience for students.
--- p.75
How can we use environmental films (animations) to teach ecological education? First, students can experience the ecological environment through play activities inside or outside the classroom.
Before doing this activity, you could design the lesson by showing a portion of the film as an introduction to spark interest and help students naturally connect it to what they will be learning today.
--- p.92
Students who are going through difficult times due to COVID-19 are working hard to grow crops in the school garden, wearing masks and holding hoes.
Through healthy physical labor, students will experience the value and reward of labor. By working with their friends and teachers to cultivate the school garden, they will develop social skills and grow into individuals who know how to find their role as members of the community.
We expect that students who participate in the school garden as a playground and garden education will grow into a generation that can find the most reasonable point of mutual coexistence through communication between humans and nature.
--- p.133
Forest experiences are activities that involve direct contact with nature, helping students develop their whole lives.
By exploring natural objects in nature with friends, you can develop a positive sense of community by recognizing yourself and communicating with others in a considerate manner.
We also believe that forest experiences will help establish the components of forests and the desirable relationship between nature and humans.
--- p.150
“Today, we will go to the Han River to explore the Gangseo Ecological Wetland.” Before I could finish speaking, the students, their eyes sparkling brightly, looked up and cheered in unison, “Wow!”
The Gangseo Ecological Wetland, which is located along the Han River and within walking distance of the school, is a treasure trove of biological resources.
---p.156
As the number of deliveries increases due to COVID-19, the demand for plastics increases, and the cost of disposing of the overflowing plastic is also considerable.
The problem of waste disposal resulting from humanity's excessive use of plastic is emerging as another environmental issue.
--- p.183
Are wet wipes really necessary in classrooms? Are there any alternatives? Back when wet wipes weren't available, hand rags were used in classrooms.
If I spilled water or liquid during art class or other classes, I immediately got a rag and wiped it up.
How much disposable waste is generated from disposable items like paper cups, chopsticks, spoons, and wet wipes? According to the Ministry of Environment's 2019 National Waste Statistics Survey, each person generates 929.90 grams of household waste per day.
--- p.190
The average temperature of the Earth is about 15℃.
In the past it was much higher or lower than this.
There are natural fluctuations in climate.
But scientists say temperatures are rising faster than ever before.
This rise in the Earth's average temperature is related to the greenhouse effect.
--- p.218
The purpose of the Ecological Environment Poetry Collection Publishing activity is to have students express in their own words what they have learned and felt through various ecological environment project activities, thereby conveying a message of ecological environment protection to readers.

Publisher's Review
We already feel every day that the Earth is suffering from climate change and fine dust caused by global warming.
Moreover, what about our lives now, transformed by COVID-19? Protecting the environment can no longer be a priority.
It is not an option for humans to coexist with the Earth and achieve sustainable development; it is the only way for us to survive.
The author found hope for a healthy future where humans and the Earth coexist in ecological environmental education.
This is because, through my long teaching career, I have confirmed that students who have experienced ecological education through their five senses find solutions for practicing coexistence between nature and humans.
Ecological education is an education that seeks to move away from human-centered thinking and pursues a comprehensive change in thinking and behavior to achieve coexistence and sustainability between humans and nature.
This book asks the question, "What can we do for the ecological environment?" and suggests solutions.
Through the vivid ecological activity sheets and works of students included in the book, we can feel the warm hearts of children who love nature.
Furthermore, we can infer how much of an impact ecological environmental activities felt through experiential activities with the five senses will have on children's future.
Now we have no more time to delay.
We all need to be concerned about the planet's environmental problems and take action to find proactive solutions.
Ecological environmental education is one of them.
