22
www.themegallery.com Picture reading A greenhouse is made of _______ and is used for growing ________, especially during _____ weather. What is a greenhouse made of and used for? glass plants cold
23
www.themegallery.com The air inside is warm because the glass ______ the heat from the sun and keeps it from _________. This makes the greenhouse __________ and so the plants can grow _______________. traps escaping heat up throughout the cold period How does a greenhouse work?
24
www.themegallery.com Now can you connect global warming with greenhouse and think of the relationship between them? Maybe you can understand why we call global warming “greenhouse effect”, right?
