This is not simply a rant at how we should not be using plastic but offers solutions and practical ideas on ways to reduce consumption and recycle such materials. It goes on to educate children on the term 'biodegradable' and the long-term effects of plastic on a planet, causing readers to look inwardly and reflect upon their own lifestyles.A one-hour long, very detailed, fully resourced PSHE lesson suitable for KS1.
