Synopsis
This activity book and educator's guide provides students with a plethora of classroom and outdoor activities about climate change and climate resilience, focusing on solutions and awareness.
The educator guide provides descriptions, goals, and links to additional supporting materials, and students can earn badges as they complete tasks in the book.
This activity book is a fun and interesting way to get students thinking about climate change and climate resiliency.
Students will benefit from the curricular connections that span several subjects and will especially enjoy the badges that can be earned from completing each activity.
Additional Prerequisites
Students should have a prior understanding of climate change or global warming.
The digital workbook pages should be printed out for students ahead of time.
Differentiation
This resource would work well in a science, language arts, or social studies class.
Lower elementary students may benefit from completing the reading together, while upper elementary and middle school students should be able to complete the activity book independently.
One fun way to implement this resource would be to use each activity as a station for students to visit around your classroom.
If you print each student their own activity book, this resource could work as something students work on at their own pace when they are done with other assignments or need a break.
As an extension, you could combine all of the articles students created into a class newspaper.
