Pridobivanje jezikovnega znanja in odnosa do okolja ob literarnem besedilu Madu s prijatelji pomaga rešiti morje

The purpose of the article is to highlight how pupils (today’s children, tomorrow’s adults) face current environmental issues and how they communicate about climate/environmental change. Pupils can acquire both linguistic knowledge and environmental attitudes with the help of the literary text Madu and His Friends Help Save the Sea (Gračner, 2021). To make optimum didactic use of the story, the lesson can take into consideration the goals of addressing ecological problems (i. e., ocean pollution), on the one hand, and linguistic aspects (professional terms from ecology), on the other.
