Gr6/7 Climate Change - Five Perspectives (Video+Reading Materials+Lesson Ideas)

By Mark Holmes

Help your middle schoolers dive deep into the complexities of climate change with this engaging and thought-provoking resource!

"Climate Change: Five Perspectives" goes beyond basic facts, encouraging students to analyze diverse viewpoints and develop their critical thinking skills.

This comprehensive resource includes:

  • Five compelling letters, each written to the United: Each letter presents a unique perspective on climate change, written from the point of view of:

    • The Urgent Activist
    • The Cautious Skeptic
    • The Technological Optimist
    • The Economic Pragmatist
    • The Frontline Youth (a student living in Kiribati)
  • A companion AI video where the five letters are read aloud by their authors.

  • 12 Engaging Assignments: Designed to spark critical thinking and enhance literacy skills, these activities encourage students to:

    • Analyze author's craft, purpose, and structure.
    • Synthesize information and evaluate evidence.
    • Compare and contrast perspectives.
    • Develop their own informed opinions.
  • Alignment with Curriculum: This resource integrates with many Grade 6 literacy outcomes and climate change units. It was paritcularly aimed at the Alberta curriciulum.

Why This Resource Stands Out:

  • Promotes Critical Thinking: Students learn to analyze different viewpoints, evaluate evidence, and form their own conclusions.
  • Encourages Empathy and Global Awareness: By exploring diverse perspectives, students gain a deeper understanding of how climate change impacts people around the world.
  • Offers Flexibility: The resource can be adapted for individual work, small group activities, or whole-class discussions.
  • Saves You Time: The ready-to-use letters, video, and assignments make it easy to implement this resource in your classroom.

Spark meaningful conversations about climate change and empower your students to become informed, engaged global citizens!

Egg Incubation and Hatching Unit- Over 2 Hours of Footage + Worksheets and Test

By Ms. J's ELA

Don’t you want your students to have the opportunity to see baby chickens and ducks hatch? It is hard to incubate eggs in the classroom. It is messy, it can be distracting for the kids, and once the birds hatch you have to figure out what to do with them! This resource allows your students to see every step of the incubation process without all the hassle. You will receive over 2 hours of videos, along with worksheet pages that include parts of an egg, egg writing prompts, and egg drawing sheets. Best of all, you will have ample footage of adorable baby birds!

This resource contains differentiated assignments that are designed to make this unit useful for teachers of all elementary grade levels. I would like you to know ahead of time that baby birds are a little icky looking when they hatch. Of course, they fluff up after a while, and you will get to see them once they do. However, the soggy, dinosaur looking baby birds could be a little frightening to very young students unless they are prepped. You could always skip the active hatching videos. 

This resource covers the entire egg hatching and incubation process. This resource contains videos for each day of the 21 days of incubation, along with footage of the 2 and 3 day old birds. You can see a breakdown of the video topics and the length of each video below. Below the schedule you will see a list of assignments and worksheets that you will receive with your purchase.
