Today, most scientists agree that Earth's

TEMPERATURE HAS RISEN OVER THE PAST CENTURY

CARBON DIOXIDE IS ONE OF THE PRIMARY GREENHOUSE GASES

THAT CONTRIBUTE TO GLOBAL WARMING

carbon dioxide emissions come from

BURNING COAL, OIL AND GAS

Carbon dioxide gases trap heat that

IS BUILDING UP IN EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE

the trapping of these gases

create a global greenhouse effect

which leads to

global warming

we are going to act

out the greenhouse gas effect

6 volunteers

4 "heat" + 2 "Greenhouse gas"

the sun produces heat

that reaches the earth's surface

some heat escapes back into space

while gases in the atmosphere trap some heat

these greenhouse gases allow earth

to stay warm + allows life to flourish

the greenhouse effect is a

BENEFICIAL, natural process

without it the earth WOULD

be too cold to sustain life + our ecosystem

predict: what would happen

if more greenhouse gases were added
Photo by djking

since there are many more

greenhouse gases, more heat is trapped

this is how

global warming happens

Students will be able to

Act out the Greenhouse Effect, using creative dramatics,

+ DISCOVER HOW IT CONTRIBUTES TO THE WARMING OF OUR EARTH

Work together will others to achieve the

COMMON GOAL OF DEMONSTRATING GLOBAL WARMING

orally Explain the

GREENHOUSE EFFECT

Explain how human’s impact on Greenhouse

EFFECT CONTRIBUTES TO GLOBAL WARMING

Teach the Greenhouse Effect/global warming to a family member

through their own oral presentation and artwork.
