Climate change / global warming KS1 PSHE lesson.
A one-hour long, very detailed, fully resourced PSHE lesson suitable for KS1, however, the activities could easily be adapted for use with older students.
In this lesson, the children will learn about climate change and the reasons why our world is getting warmer. We will discuss the harmful effects of greenhouse gases and the different ways we can help to lessen the effects of global warming.
The lesson includes a case study starter, a video clip with accompanying questions, an sorting task and a puzzle plenary task.
This lesson would also serve as a useful resource to celebrate ‘Earth Day’. Created to fit the new DfE and PSHE Association statutory 2020 /21 guidelines, the lesson includes a detailed PowerPoint, all editable with accompanying tasks and worksheets.
The lesson has been left editable and is filled with engaging, well differentiated and fun activities. It is designed to be ‘no prep’, so you can just pick it up and use it, although it is still adaptable should you wish to.
