Projects 2022

CLIMATE CHANGE DEFINITION

First we had a brainstorming session about climate change; after we made up some posters on how we understand our planet is being affected by the environmental issues and causes.

EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE

We discussed about the effects of climate change in our planet and region; we planted some beans on dumped cotton so that students could follow the germination. When they will be ready to pot, students will take home and pot the plants! This a practical way we could find to involve all the students on this task since planting a tree is kind of difficult to reach all of them.

GLOBAL CAUSES AND EFFECTS/ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

We discussed about the environmental issues and peered up with Ryerson Public School in Cambridge, ON, Canada.

Solutions for Climate Change

Discuss about possible solutions for climate change through slides and students interaction.
