Lesson Plans

Welcome to United in Biodiversity, your gateway to a transformative educational experience tailored for EU STEAM teachers.

The lesson plans developed through the United in Biodiversity project follow a common structure designed to ensure clarity, adaptability, and replicability across diverse European school contexts. Each lesson plan includes a clear title, an indication of the target class with reference to the appropriate school level, and learning objectives articulated in terms of knowledge, competencies, and attitudes to be developed. They also feature explicit connections to the Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda.

The materials and resources section specifies the required digital tools, possible use of 3D printers, low-cost materials, and external spaces. The activity sequence is structured in three phases: an introductory phase to activate prior knowledge, an operational development phase for active learning, and a final reflection phase to consolidate learning.

Particular attention is given to inclusion and diversity, with simplified instructions, cooperative activities, and multimodal resources that ensure participation from all students. Assessment criteria are supported by detailed rubrics that monitor progress across three dimensions: knowledge, competencies, and attitudes.

Ultimately, the lesson plans make biodiversity education accessible and engaging, spark scientific curiosity, foster collaboration and creativity, and cultivate environmental responsibility through hands-on learning and active citizenship.
