Climate Change – 9 Lesson Unit

CLIMATE CHANGE – TEACHER PACKAGE

Includes a sample lesson and a nine-lesson unit on climate change for junior grades using the Climate Action Muskoka’s Community Carbon Challenge and other resources. Six pages. (Developed by retired TLDSB teachers, Janet Libke, Linda Mathers, and Sue McKenzie)

Young people are calling for the inclusion of widespread education on climate, climate justice, and on activism in education curricula around the world. They need not only knowledge, but also ways to achieve the changes required i.e. how they can influence change. Recent reports show that Climate Change education focusing on solutions is essential to bring hope and opportunity to our young students.

This is a joint project between RTOERO (Retired Teachers of Ontario District 46) and Climate Action Muskoka. (limited supply of bookmarks for students available upon request: climateactionmuskoka@gmail.com)
