My Top 5 Earth-Saving Actions for This Year Template

What Learning Goal Can This Template Support?

This template helps students identify and commit to concrete, personal environmental choices by asking them to write their top 5 Earth-saving actions for this year. Teachers can use it to prompt reflection on specific behaviors – for example, reducing waste or conserving energy – and to connect those choices to the health of our planet and an eco-friendly lifestyle.

Skills Practiced:

• Writing a ranked “top 5” list
• Identifying Earth-saving actions (e.g., reducing waste, conserving energy)
• Prioritizing personal choices for this year
• Reflective goal-setting tied to the health of our planet
• Generating ideas to inspire others toward eco-friendly lifestyle changes

Teacher-Friendly Ways to Use This Template:

1. Use as a warm-up: ask students to list their top 5 Earth-saving actions for this year and briefly note why each one matters to the health of our planet.
2. Have students pair-share one chosen action (for example, reducing waste or conserving energy) and explain how it could inspire others; use the conversation as a springboard for a class display or short oral reports.
3. Customize prompts or create alternate versions for different learners with the Worksheet Generator, this makes it easy to vary focus (waste, energy, lifestyle) while keeping the single-list task intact.
