    @Ana_moderator yes Ana I ve tried this one . Understand the difference between climate and weather . Kids understood it .
    Also we did recycling in art period to make useful things. (Recycled .)

  • Supporting students with dyslexia in the classroom can be facilitated using various Microsoft tools. Utilize immersive Reader in Microsoft Word to customize text settings, such as font style, size, and spacing, making reading more accessible. Incorporate PowerPoint for visual aids and diagrams, enhancing comprehension and organization of information. Encourage collaborative learning with Microsoft Teams, facilitating peer support and group projects while providing a platform for students to communicate their needs and preferences. Additionally, leverage OneNote for structured note-taking and organization, allowing students to create digital notebooks with multimedia elements. By integrating these Microsoft tools, educators can implement multisensory instruction, provide assistive technology support, and foster a supportive learning environment for students with dyslexia.

    Hello Anna,
    Climate change is an important topic which according to me should be taught from the primary level itself because it is important to sensitize our your young learners about actions to be taken to protect our environment to prevent its impact globally. I normally teach this topic through ICT by integrating my students to AR and VR. I often use Nearpod platform. Students of diverse learning needs are involved in the teaching and learning process. Children viewed videos on the impacts and consequences due to climate change. They are asked to reflect about it. This platform also provides an assessment tool where evaluation is carried out at the end of the lesson.

  • @Ana_moderator yes, it is a grand challenge from challenges that face the world and in STEM school we try to solve this challenge . we encourage students to find alternative sources of energy and using eco-friendly materials in their projects.

  • @Ana_moderator said in Activities and resources for teaching about Climate Change:

    According to the latest UNESCO report https://unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0000383615

    70% of the youth surveyed cannot explain Climate Change, or can only explain its broad principles, or do not know anything about it.

    Do you talk to your students about Climate Change? How can school become a place where people get prepared for Climate Change?

    Let’s try to collect climate change education practices here.

    How do you teach about Climate Change?
    What resourses do you use to teach about Climate Change?
    Please share your ideas on the topic in the replies below⬇

    I utilize the personal values to promote the understanding that green education is an integral part of belonging

  • @Ana_moderator Schools can play a crucial role in this by integrating Climate Change education across subjects, organizing workshops and field trips focused on environmental issues, and fostering a culture of sustainability within the school community. By empowering students with knowledge and encouraging them to take action, schools become effective hubs for preparing individuals to understand and respond to Climate Change challenges.

    Hello,
    Climate change is already included in our National Curriculum Framework and pupils are assessed on it for exams. Various projects are conducted in schools so as to educate young learners about climate change, its impact and consequences on the environment.

    For example, I created an Armenian audio version of this video.
    I use it as a resource in my classes.

    Setting
    The game takes place in the distant future, where the ecology of the planet has declined due to the excessive use of natural resources and environmental pollution. The surviving groups of people live in isolated eco-communities surrounded by destroyed and dangerous regions. However, thanks to scientific achievements and innovative developments, humanity has found a way to restore the planet and build a green future.

    The main character
    You play as a young scientist named Alexey who grew up in one of these eco-communes and dreams of a world where people and nature live in harmony. Its goal is to unite disparate communities and revive the planet's ecosystem. The main storyline
    The beginning of the journey

    Alexey receives a task from the elder of his eco-commune to go on a journey to find ancient technologies and knowledge that will help restore the environment.
    During the preparation for the trip, Alexey learns about the legend of the "Green Guardian" — a mythical creature that protects the secret knowledge about the rebirth of nature.
    Exploration of the destroyed lands

    Alexey travels through abandoned cities, deserts and infected forests, meeting various groups of people, from merchants to robbers.
    Along the way, he collects artifacts and ancient technologies, and finds clues that point to the location of the Green Guardian.

  • @Ana_moderator Absolutely! Plastic pollution is a critical issue intertwined with climate change education. It's crucial to highlight how plastics contribute to environmental degradation, from greenhouse gas emissions during production to their persistence in ecosystems, impacting biodiversity and human health. Addressing plastic pollution is integral to fostering sustainable practices and mitigating climate change effects.

  • @Bousl2336873cb4 great work my friend. I want to share also my YouTube channel link with you

    Wow! This is a great idea for the lesson, thank you for sharing!

  • @Ana_moderator
    Dear colleagues, in addition to paper recycling, we also gave new life to plastic and tried to share our ideas with our colleagues.
    This is made from a plastic bag.

    This vase is made from a bowl of liquid.

  • @Samar-Mohamed
    Hello Samar,
    The concept of 3Rs can be encouraged among learners to prevent plastic pollution: reduce, reuse and recycle. In my school, we are sensitising students about protecting the environment. Parents and members of the community are involved in school activities to prevent plastic pollution. Plastic bottles available at school are being transformed into flower pots and students are encouraged to plant their favourite flowers.

  • @Ani-Bareghamyan
    Hello,
    In my school, various activities are being organised to implement the 3 Rs: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Students are different grades are included in the project. 1000101028.jpg 1000101032.jpg 1000101029.jpg

  • Dear @Housna
    You have done a great job, keep it up. I have planned to organize an exhibition this year from the waste of plastic bags and plastic bottles, which we will collect from the area of ​​the nearby river. We hope it will work, so I will introduce the children to the problem of the global ocean.
