The Big Climate Change Experiment begins with young scientists gaining background knowledge by watching news clips a video and examining cartoons. Next, learners view videos of witnesses who describe how climate change affects their lives and their culture. Scholars then evaluate the scientific evidence that climate change occurs and create analogies to illustrate the difference between weather and climate. The unit ends with class members scripting and presenting a news segment on climate change.
