For those of you who have wondered about what type of activities are available in our Teacher’s Guides, we’ve created a “sampler” of what you can find inside each one below. You can also view actual teacher lesson plans from these guides in our “Downloadable Activities” section.
From the guide to “How We Know What We Know About Our Changing Climate” – The lesson “Scientific Inquiry in Action” underscores one of the key messages of the book: we know what we do about climate change because of the questions that scientists have investigated and the results they’ve found. After you use a KWL Chart (Know/Want to Know/Learned) to assess students’ prior knowledge about climate change, students work in small groups to identify the hypothesis, data, and conclusions of the scientists presented in the book. Students compile their information to create a wall chart for the classroom.
