Climate Change In The School Yard

During this lesson students investigate how biodiversity in their school yard will be affected by climate change. They begin by identifying aspects of biodiversity in their school yard, and undertake research to identify the causes and impacts of climate change on biodiversity. Finally, students create an interactive walk through their school yard.

This lesson is designed to be taught outside. By spending time outdoors and connecting to nature, students are more likely to care for and conserve nature as adults.
