My Project

I am a believer of climate change. I feel that this topic is so important now more than ever to teach it to the youth. While this topic can be devastating to learn about, I want to send the message that everyone can play a part in helping to save our Earth, no matter how little you may be.

These engaging books will educate my students about climate change and encourage them to consider everyday activities that they can adopt to help make a change.

These beautiful, informational books will come in handy when I teach my unit on climate change. Several of the books includes activities to be an advocate for change. Perhaps my students can start a movement in our school. I would be so grateful to get these set of books for my class.
