This collection of resources consists of a set of lessons through which Key Stage Three students investigate the impacts of climate change on glaciers. The learning objectives are:

• To understand the definition of a glacier
• To understand what glacier mass balance means (what inputs mass and...

ESA Climate Detectives is a competition that is open for students from the ages of 8 to 19. Teams of...

Climate Futures, from the Centre for Science Education and the Comino Foundation, is a contemporary curriculum resource that focuses on unraveling the complexity of climate change and environmental issues for lower secondary and upper primary students (10-14 years old...

Climate change is a complex issue. In this introductory activity from the Centre for Science Education and the Comino Foundation, students are asked to look at four photographs depicting issues related to climate change and to think creatively about how the people in the pictures might feel. Students express their...

A Catalyst article about the sudden onset of an ice age and whether it is a scientific likelihood. Looking at evaporation, greenhouse gases and thermohaline circulation in the world's ocean currents the article explores likely scenarios for a major drop in temperature.

This article is from Catalyst: GCSE...
