Positives

• Students can look at the graph and follow along with it, making it useful to visualize the tons of ice loss per year.
  

Additional Prerequisites

• This video has no sound and is short, so the teacher could repeat it, pause it, or play it slower to allow students to watch the changes as they unfold.
• Students need to be familiar with climate change and how it is causing ice melt in Antarctica.

Differentiation

• The teacher can pause the video multiple times for younger students to help them follow the variations in the graph.
• Students can answer questions about the causes ice melt in Antarctica or connect it to the concept of albedo.
• Teachers can ask students to write explanatory text based on the data presented in the graph to describe what is happening.
• Middle school science teachers could implement this lesson on sea level rise to connect this animation to the effects of climate change.
