Featured GreenLearning Activity of the Month
Climate Change eCards
Visit the eCards website for the updated, post-Copenhagen edition of the climate change topic resource centre! Designed for the Ontario grade 10 Science curriculum, this unit is also popular among teachers of grade 9 to 12 Geography, Environmental Studies, Language Arts, and Media Literacy. Students learn the science, view videos, study the latest data, and answer research questions on the eCards website. They then create eCards with their own message and artwork, and with teacher approval, send them to the recipients of their choice.
To see the new climate change unit, choose Climate Change from the TOPICS menu at the eCards website.
