Lesson Plans

Save time planning! Access pre-designed lesson plans that work well with the UpToYou! simulation program.

The lesson plans and tasks recommended for working on the SDGs do not necessarily build on each other. As the sustainability subject itself is diverse, it gives the teacher the opportunity to select topics that have already been covered in previous lessons in the subject or, for example, because related events are currently happening in the world.

The lesson plans and exercises below are therefore only a starting point for the teacher to develop lessons on his/her own from the topics that arise.

Some of the exercises are not directly linked to one Sustainable Development Goal but are primarily related to the topic – some are interconnected and have to be developed as such. This is also reflected in the methodological recommendations here: often the aim is precisely to get children or the teacher to do research on certain related topics beforehand.

The primary methodological aspect is to support learning through personal experience, including the collection of information.
