EPA Student Center is the Environmental Protection Agency's website for providing students and teachers with resources to learn about conservation, ecosystems, recycling, air pollution, water pollution, human health, plants, and animals with games and activities. This website includes sections for teachers, students, and a special page for high school students.
Each of these sections contains tools such as sourcebooks for learning more about things like acid rain and environmental basics. There are ideas for community projects like adopting a watershed. The Fun Activities section includes activities and games that help kids learn about Integrated Pest Management and UV radiation. Recycle City is a great resource that incorporates a game, an interactive book, and other puzzles to show hundreds of ways a whole town can reduce, reuse, and recycle.
Some of the many other resources on this site include a teacher's page with a curriculum guide and lesson plan, information on careers, scholarships, and grants, and community projects.
