7. What do you think about climate change?
Agree Disagree
For each of the statements - decide where you stand on the opinion continuum
Use the Activity from STRIDE online magazine
Explanation of activity
You need plenty of space. Mark out an imaginary line with the signs ‘agree’ at one end and ‘disagree’ at the other. Ask the pupils to imagine a line from one side of the space to the other. Explain that you are going to read out some statements and they should place themselves along the imaginary line depending on what they think. There are no ‘wrong’ or ‘right’ answers! Start with a practice statement: ‘Cats are better than dogs.’ Now read out each of the statements below on climate change. Give them time to think about it and choose their place on the line. Encourage those in different places to say a few words about their choice. Try to cover the range of opinions.
Questions
Climate change doesn’t really affect animals and plants
Everyone in the world is equally responsible for climate change.
All animals will be affected by climate change in the same way.
We could do more about climate change.

8. Climate Change word cloud
As a group, create a word cloud of keywords and terms associated with climate change.
Example of a word cloud taken from:

9. Race against time http://www. forestsforthefuture. co
The warmer climate conditions can be seen to be moving northwards, migrating 4,380m a year, or 12m a day!
Discussion Questions
Could we travel that far each week if we needed to keep up with changing climatic conditions?
How about other animals?
Which animals would find it easy to migrate that far?
Which animals would struggle to keep up?
What about plants – how can they migrate to keep up with changing climate?

10. Our Changing Climate

11. Nature on the move http://www.gettingthepicture.info/4/
Climate change is causing shifts in a species range, this means the plant or animal is moving to new areas where they haven’t been documented before.
Climate change is also causing biome shifts — this means that entire vegetation and ecosystem zones, like deserts or forests, are also expanding into new areas or reducing their size.

12. Seabirds and Climate change
The Black-browed albatross is a large seabird with a seven-foot wingspan found on twelve islands throughout the southern oceans.
Like all seabirds, this species has seen significant declines in population in the last 60 years.
Most seabirds nest on low-lying islands vulnerable to rising sea levels.
Since they require sandy soil for nesting, moving inland may be be an immediate option.

13. Reef Fish and Climate Change
With declining corals come declines in coral reef fish species.
They are replaced by algae- eating fish, but the rich, colorful fish life that make coral reefs famous do not return unless the area is recolonized by coral.

14. Proteas of South Africa
Species like the Protea repens (“Sugarbush”) that live at the tips of continents are at risk for the same reason as species near the tops of mountains.
When there is little cooler space to move to, species may literally run out of room as the world warms.

All you will need is a few bits of junk modelling and the rest is there for you, including PPT, teacher’s notes, pupils worksheets, free posters, certificates to ay well done for taking part, videos showing the science in action etc. 25

26. Climate Migration
Climate change has the potential to cause devastation by destroying people’s homes and lives.
In the worst case scenario, people may have to migrate away from the area and find a new place or country to live.
People who have to move home due to climate change are called climate migrants

28. Why – Why – Why Chain
A Why-Why-Why chain helps you to think beyond the first things that come into your mind and begin to examine an issue in greater depth and detail.
This is an example of a Why-Why-Why chain asking the question: Why do people move to the UK from overseas?
Adapted from Oxfam GB’s 2015 Global Citizenship Guide for Teachers.Taken from

29. Why-why-why Chain QUESTION?
Begin by writing a question on the left hand side of a large piece of paper.
QUESTION?

30. Why-Why-Why Chain
Next, write down the three most important reasons why you can think of, to the right of the issue and link them with arrows.
The direction of each arrow shows you believe that the issue at the end of the arrow is a reason why the first issue occurs.
These three answers now become new issues that you try to answer with as many reasons why as you can think of.
Repeat this process as many times as you can and use arrows to show how the issues are linked.
