My Project

I want to teach my first graders about climate change through rich literature. I would love some picture books about climate change. I would keep these books in my class library and use them with my environmental science class curriculum. It is critically imperative to teach about climate change, deforestation, and burning fossil fuels that promote climate change every day.

So our classrooms should be rich with information about nature, plants, trees, and wildlife.

Additionally, they affect our daily weather and cause long-term changes in the climate, also known as "climate change".
