Abstract
The responsibility of educating using sustainable models is everyone´s task. Concepts such
as the environment, ecology, our surroundings, the eco-system... should be present in a
child´s educaction from a very early age. For this reason Primary Education is the focus for
our work with the aim of raising awareness of the deterioration of the environment whilst
promoting attitudes and behaviours conducive to the attainment of sustainable development.
In order to do this we propose using one of the artistic procedures less frequently used in
the classroom, engraving and etching techniques. Through processes which encourage
the development of attention, perception, imagination and creativity in a responsible
manner, we will work using the technological possibilities offered by the most innovative
graphic techniques which are the use of photopolymers in the classroom. The preparation
of drawings to be processed using “less toxic” procedures will allow us to achieve conducts
sensitized to sustainability through environmental education.
