One of the 18 international environmental conventions ratified by the Republic of Moldova, which directly promotes natural heritage conservation is the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (Washington, 1973),known under the abbreviation CITES. Plant species of the Republic of Moldova, are found exclusively on Appendix II lists, i.e. species that may become threatened with extinction, being in number of 25 species and require appropriate environmental management (in this sense we propose an ecological model of education regarding knowledge and protection of these species). Environmental education regarding these species achieved by model aimed: a) Geobotanical peculiarities of species, geographic distribution at international and local level, factors impacting on them, measures of conservation and protection of species; b) variety of teaching, applied methods, depending on individual age of children, the stages of educational model and objectives (in our case being invented a teaching game - the “CITES shop”, include the role of seller (played by professor) and buyers (pupils), who will only have to buy flowers that are not included in Annexes of the convention, arguing their choice).
