Project WILD Climate & Wildlife: An Activity Module for Grades 6 - 12
Project WILD Climate & Wildlife: An Activity Module for Grades 6 - 12
Teaching about climate change presents several challenges for educators. The subject matter is complex and often abstract, it expands across academic subject areas, and it is emotionally charged. This module was assembled as a supplemental resource to better equip educators in their efforts to build students' understanding, critical thinking, and ability to make well-informed decisions regarding impacts of climate change and how we will adapt to a changing climate. With wildlife as a focal point to build student interest and relevancy, the activities in this module will help students examine ecological phenomena relating to a changing climate. The set of activities are primarily from the Project WILD K-12 Curriculum & Activity Guide, as well as one from Aquatic WILD and one from Flying WILD. The activities target sudents in grades 6-12. Upper elementary educators will also find several activities useful.
