Lesson Activities by Day

Date	Phase 1: Starter (7 mins) Preparing the brain	Phase 2: Main (15 mins) New learning + assessment	Resources	Phase 3: Plenary (5 mins) Reflection + exercise
Mon 01 Jun 2026	1Learners will identify types of waste found in their immediate environment and recall prior knowledge of waste management 2Show learners three items: a plastic bottle, a banana peel, and old newspaper. Ask: Which of these items can rot naturally? Which will take many years to disappear? Learners raise hands to answer	UNDERSTANDING WASTE TYPES AND THEIR IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT 1Display the Chart/diagram showing organic and inorganic waste types. Point to each type (food scraps, leaves, plastic, metal, glass) and ask learners to repeat the names chorally twice. Write on the board: 'Organic waste rots. Inorganic waste does not rot easily.' Learners copy this sentence into their exercise books and draw one example of each type underneath 2Explain using a local example: 'Ama is a market trader at Makola. Every day she throws banana peels and plastic bags together into one pile. Over time, the banana peels rot and create bad smell and germs, but the plastic stays for many years and harms animals.' Ask learners: What should Ama do differently? Learners discuss in pairs for one minute, then a volunteer shares their answer 3Struggling learners: work with the teacher to sort only three items (banana peel, plastic bottle, metal tin) into organic and inorganic piles using the Science kit/specimens provided.	1Chart/diagram showing types of waste 2Science kit/specimens (banana peel, plastic bottle, metal tin, paper) 3Exercise books 4Textbook	1Ask learners to stand if they now know what organic waste is, and to stay seated if they are still unsure. Ask one learner who stood to explain it to a learner still seated in their own words 2Show a picture of a clean school compound and a dirty compound. Ask learners: Which compound has better waste management? Why? Learners respond by showing thumbs up for clean, thumbs down for dirty, then explain their choice to their neighbour Exercise 1Write in your exercise book: Kofi's family produces this waste each day—orange peels, plastic bags, old clothes, and leftover rice. Identify which items are organic and which are inorganic. Write: Organic waste: _____. Inorganic waste: _____
