Earth Day Sorting Activity and Coloring Pages

April 6, 2018

Do you need a quick activity for Earth Day? I have a reduce, reuse, and recycle sorting activity along with some coloring pages that your students will enjoy!

Do you need a quick activity for Earth Day? Take a look at this free sorting activity. Students sort examples under the reduce, reuse, and recycle flaps. There are also four color-by-code activities with an Earth Day theme.

 

EARTH DAY SORTING ACTIVITY

The first thing you will need to do is print out your pages. If you print on white, students can color in the reduce, reuse, recycle kids any way they want. To save time and add color, I like to print on Astrobrights paper. If you print the sorting cards on a second color of paper, it really makes this sorting activity POP!

This free sorting activity is perfect to use near Earth Day. Students will glue statements under the reduce, reuse, and recycle flaps.

 

Once students have cut out all of their pieces, it is time to begin the sort. You can choose to complete this activity whole group, with partners, or independently.

When students have correctly completed the sort, it’s time to glue. Students just need to lift the flap and glue the sorting cards underneath.

EARTH DAY COLORING PAGES

When students have finished, they can complete an Earth Day themed color by code page. There are two addition and two subtraction options.

After completing the reduce, reuse, recycle sorting activity, students can complete an Earth Day themed color by code activity.

You can grab these freebies below.

If you’re starting 2021 by making resolutions and setting goals with your students, I suggest sharing Squirrel’s New Year’s Resolution by Pat Miller. This book follows Squirrel around the forest as she learns what a resolution is and helps her friends get started on theirs. Swipe to see a kid craft you can pair with this story. I also have comprehension and vocabulary activities for this book. Just follow the link in my bio for more information.⁣

Winter is officially here! Have you had snow yet w Winter is officially here! Have you had snow yet where you live? We haven’t, but my kids are anxiously waiting. While we wait, it’s been fun to revisit our favorite snow day memories while reading Ten Ways to Hear Snow.⁣

Since Sitta is losing her eyesight, Lina rushes to bundle up and get over to her home. Lina wants to make sure her grandma is okay and knows about the snow outside. On the way, Lina explores the city muffled by snow and discovers ten different ways to hear snow. ❄️⁣

During one of the worst snow storms of the year, a little girl and her family settle in for the night. They build a fort by the fire and enjoy a picnic-style dinner. Later that night, the little girl makes a wish on her snow globe. The next morning the family wakes up to a winter wonderland outside. ⁣

Snow Globe Wishes has a great message about slowing down, enjoying the simple things, and bringing a community together. It would be perfect to share while getting cozy on cold, winter day!⁣

In this latest book, Danny’s headed to the water park with his family. Throughout the day, he’s faced with a lot of important decisions to make. Will he be fair and kind, show empathy towards others, keep himself safe, and take responsibility for his actions? That’s up to the reader to help Danny decide! ⁣

Growing up, I loved reading choose-your-own-adventure books because it was so much fun getting to decide how the story ended. Now my own kids get to experience that same reading magic with these Power to Choose books from Ganit and Adir Levy. My kids are bound and determined to read every single one of the 9 different endings.⁣

Have you read any of the Danny or Darla books yet? If so, do you have a favorite?⁣
