Compost at school, at your institution, or at home using an indoor worm bin or outdoor compost bin for sustainability and integrated science learning of life science standards. Information will be provided on how to make your own worm bin and get a free voucher for red wiggler earthworms from MassDEP’s GREEN TEAM program for your school or institution. Also, learn how to get and use an outdoor compost bin from MassDEP’s GREEN TEAM program for your school or institution. Great tie-in with gardening and sustainable life skills, as well as hands-on biology, for students at school or at home.

The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection provides a GREEN TEAM library of videos, books, curriculum, recycling activity kits, and general solid waste resources for loan to Massachusetts educators. Our goal is to support and promote school recycling education and programs by making these materials available to teachers.
Descriptions of available materials are provided in THE GREEN TEAM Library Catalog along with borrowing instructions.
Use the three links below to view lists of resources that you can filter by grade level, topic, and more:
Or you can download the full list of GREEN TEAM Virtual Library resources (xls).
Looking for books, videos, or curricula on environmental topics to use in your classroom? The following GREEN TEAM Virtual Library includes resources for students of all ages. Many of the videos and curricula are available for free online. Look for other resources at your school or local library. In case you cannot find a book or video at a library, we also provide links to help find these resources for purchase online. We have highlighted a few resources that THE GREEN TEAM has available for schools to borrow. To request a physical copy from THE GREEN TEAM, please email recycle@thegreenteam.org.
See THE GREEN TEAM English Language Arts document for how materials in THE GREEN TEAM library align with learning standards in the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks for English Language Arts.
