As young children will become the next generation of adults, it is vital that they are educated about sustainability issues, so that they can learn to make informed decisions and take positive action for a sustainable world. Teachers are ideally placed to educate for sustainability issues, and indeed have a responsibility to do so. However, they often lack support and experience in this area, and constraints of current curriculum priorities can inhibit Education for Sustainability being taught effectively in many classrooms. Educating for Sustainability in Primary Schools: Teaching for the Future addresses this problem by showing how Education for Sustainability can be developed within and across all areas of the primary curriculum in the Australian and New Zealand contexts. The book provides a range of educational approaches and examples of activities to support teachers in addressing national requirements for teaching the major primary curriculum learning areas, while simultaneously educating for sustainability. This integrative approach to primary education can promote knowledge of, positive attitudes towards and suitable action for sustainability in relevant, meaningful, enjoyable and creative ways. This book is a valuable resource for all primary teachers who wish to make a real difference to educating children for the future. 000727830 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed June 24, 2015). 000727830 650_0 $$aEducation, Elementary$$xAims and objectives. 000727830 650_0 $$aEnvironmental education. 000727830 7001_ $$aTaylor, Neil,$$d1957-$$eeditor. 000727830 7001_ $$aQuinn, Frances,$$eeditor. 000727830 7001_ $$aEames, Chris,$$eeditor. 000727830 852__ $$bebk 000727830 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-94-6300-046-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000727830 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:727830$$pGLOBAL_SET 000727830 980__ $$aEBOOK 000727830 980__ $$aBIB 000727830 982__ $$aEbook 000727830 983__ $$aOnline 000727830 994__ $$a92$$bISE
