Students will conduct three experiments to investigate the drivers of climate change, including adding carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, sea level rise and the effect of decreasing sea ice on temperatures. Students will become experts in one of these areas, conduct their own experiments, connect them to real-world data and then make posters to present their findings to the class.
This lesson plan includes teacher and student pages and a slideshow presentation.
