Environmental education is used to solve them. It helps students have to knowledge, attitudes, and ethics. The purposes were to develop an environmental education lesson plan using Song-Based Learning (SBL) to be effective and efficient according to the specified criteria, to study knowledge, attitudes, and ethics using songs-based learning on pre-test and post-test, and of students with different genders. The sample used in this research consisted of 39 students from class 6/4 at Anubanmuang-atsamat school, Atsamat district, Roi Et province, being selected using simple random sampling. The research tools included an environmental education lesson plan using SBL, an environmental knowledge test, an environmental attitudes test, and an environmental ethics test. The statistics used in data analysis were frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, Item-Objective Congruence (IOC), reliability index, discrimination index, difficulty index, process efficiency index (E1), outcome efficiency index (E2), and effectiveness index (E.I.), and Paired t-test, F-test (One-Way Multivariate Analysis of Variance) statistically significant at the level of .05. The research showed that 1) The environmental education lesson plan using SBL was an effectiveness score of 90.60/86.92, meeting the criteria, an effectiveness index (E.I.) of 0.6328. This indicates that students' knowledge increased and that the plan resulted ina 63.28% improvement in learning after its implementation. 2) After the lesson, students' average scores on environmental knowledge, attitudes, and ethics were significantly higher than before the lesson statically significant at the level of .05. 3) There were differences of environmental knowledge scores of students of different genders statistically significant at the level of .05., but no differences in environmental attitudes and ethics between students of different genders.  \nKeywords: environmental education, lesson plan, song-based learning, knowledge, attitude, environmental ethics  \n1. Introduction  \nHumans and the environment have been interconnected since the very beginning of human existence on Earth. The environment is therefore a crucial factor in determining human lifestyles and quality of life. Human survival depends on necessities: food, water, air, and other natural resources, all of which are obtained from nature or the environment. Currently, humans are using more natural resources. This is due to population growth, which has led to the rapid depletion of these resources. As a result, the environment cannot recover quickly enough, leading to environmental problems (Worasayan, 2021) .  \nEnvironmental education is an educational process aimed at developing the population's knowledge and understanding of the environment, fostering awareness of environmental problems, and cultivating an appreciation for natural resources. It focuses on developing human potential to become skilled in problem-solving, enabling them to participate in solving environmental issues, and allowing them to live in harmony with nature (Piempongsarn, 2025) .
