Climate Change: Effects
Grades 5 to 8 - eBook - Lesson Plan
Description
Students gain an understanding of the effects of climate change on the environment and human life. Our resource explores how the evolution of human society is affected by the climate.

Observe a homemade melting ice sheet to understand its effect on sea level. Then, create a model to show rising sea level in action. Find out if climate change has any effect on the rise of extreme weather experienced in recent years. Learn about the dangers to human health, such as mosquitoes, heat stroke and pollution. See how changes in climate affect an area's economy by virtually destroying the farming industry. Finally, choose one ecosystem and find out how climate change is affecting it.

Excellent Resource! Love the reading passages - well worth the money. Thank You!!!
I Like it!
fantastic
My students enjoyed the hands-on activities! The assessment rubric was an added bonus. My students rated themselves and I rated them. Then we held conferences to determine where the students' strengths and weaknesses were. All of the material covered was perfect for my lower readers, and yet it held their interest.
Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. It was well worth my $.
