and the Sustainability Compass. It was helpful to practice using both of these tools in a small group setting. I also enjoyed connecting with other educators who have similar goals and mindsets.<\/p><p>I plan to teach my lesson to my student green team, which includes third and fourth graders. The issue I plan to address is paper overuse at school, which we began to focus on near the end of the school year. Students learned about the life cycle of paper, including the many transportation steps, and they created a skit. The skit was recorded and will be shared with the school.<\/p><p>First, I plan to introduce the Systems Iceberg using the familiar problem of litter on the playground. Using a dry-erase board, we will start at the top and work our way down the Iceberg. While there will likely be some input from students, I will have pre-identified what will go in each layer. This model will help students become familiar with the Systems Iceberg.<\/p><p>Then, we will create another Systems Iceberg, starting with the event\/issue, \u201cThe school uses too much paper.\u201d I will put students in pairs and give each an idea that belongs in the Iceberg.\u00a0Each pair will be asked to think about where their idea might go. As a whole group, we will discuss each layer and determine where each idea belongs. The discussion will involve me asking prompting questions and providing time for students to think and pair-share.<\/p><p>Once the Iceberg is complete, I will ask students which points they think can make the most change (define leverage points), and we will decide on one to focus on. Finally, we will come up with a plan to address that leverage point.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7eb9b8a elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"7eb9b8a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4eaecbd elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"4eaecbd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f63589 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7f63589\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Author<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-88c08b7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"88c08b7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-32634d8\" data-id=\"32634d8\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3d7b226 elementor-widget elementor-widget-author-box\" data-id=\"3d7b226\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"author-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"elementor-author-box__avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Britni-Cacan.jpeg\" alt=\"Imagen de Britni Cacan\" loading=\"lazy\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-author-box__name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBritni Cacan\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Britni lives in the beautiful Willamette Valley in the state of Oregon, U.S. She is a former classroom teacher at the elementary level, and her passion is learning and teaching about sustainability topics.
