That's Rubbish!


I was reading Education Review the other day and I saw an advertisement for a terrific resource. Clean Up Australia has launched a web-based educational game called "Clean Up The River".

It is a challenge-based game to enable infants and primary students to learn more about the impact of rubbish on their local river systems. There are four levels of difficulty and the animated game is divided into two sections - the first is where students have to navigate a river while removing rubbish in order to save the marine life, and the second takes place in a recycling plant where rubbish needs to be sorted correctly. There is also a multiple choice quiz to reinforce the learning. If you have a go with your class please post a comment.
