Temperature in Ireland Teacher note: In this lesson children investigate the difference between weather and climate and are introduced to the concept of climate change. Activity type: Research Questions to promote discussion 1 How could you find out information on Ireland’s weather in the past? 2 Who might you ask?

Video available to download for viewing from http://www. seai (**Search under videos ) Research Ask your parents and grandparents about the weather during their life time. Questions could include: 1 When you were younger was the weather in the summer hotter / sunnier? 2 When you were younger was the weather during the winter colder / wetter? 3 Do you think the weather has stayed the same? 4 How do you think the weather has changed? 5 Can you remember any times when the weather caused problems? Activity type: Record, communicate and discuss Create a class collage of quotes from parents and grandparents. Video available to download for viewing from http://www.seai.ie/Schools/Primary_Schools/Resources_Available/

Air Temperature in Ireland The graph shows information about how the air temperature in Ireland has increased from 1900-2011. Ask the children to think about what this graph is telling us about the Irish climate. Questions to promote discussion 1 What does the information tell us about the climate / Irish climate? 2 Does the Irish climate ever get very hot like a desert? 3 Does it ever get very cold like the North Pole?

Questions to promote discussion Why do you think the Arctic climate is changing? What is causing the climate to change? What effect is this having on polar bears?
