Checks students’ prior knowledge about the topic.

True-False activity

1. Global warming is the decrease of the average temperature on Earth.

2. Global warming is a problem caused by the greenhouse gases.

3. The greenhouse gases are nitrous oxide, water vapour, methane and carbon dioxide (CO2).

4. The Sun’s radiation is trapped by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and leads to warming of the Earth. This is process called Greenhouse effect.

5. Burning fossil fuels produces extra greenhouse gases, which means that more hot air will be trapped.

6. An increase in temperature won’t change many things on Earth.

Task 1. Read the text and answer to the questions:

Encourage learners to read, summarize and evaluate extracts about Global warming.

After reading the text answer to the following questions:

1) What are 2 main factors that causes global warming do you know?

2) Give examples of the reasons of each factors

Share their understanding about the causes of global warming.

Students repeat after teacher key words

Students do true false activity

Students check answers.

Students read the text and answer to the questions.

Students discuss the answer and peer assess each other’s key points

3) Name 2 effects of global warming.

Helps in classroom management and provides extra support to the less abled students.

2.Invite learners to analyze scientific data including graphs on global warming.

Task 2. Analyze the graph

Analyze scientific data and the graph showing atmospheric CO₂ and fill the gaps.

1. In the year 1960, the carbon dioxide concentration was ________(ppm).

2. In the year 2020, the carbon dioxide concentration was________ (ppm).

3. According to the data global carbon dioxide concentrations are ___________ significantly.

(increasing/decreasing)

4. If atmospheric carbon dioxide continues to rise the ____________will________too.

Students analyze the graph and fill the gaps.

Students discuss the answer and peer assess each other’s answers.

In pairs, students

choose from the text 1 cause, 1 effect and 1 solution to the Global warming and fill in the Fish bone diagram.

Sticky notes

Differentiation – how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more able learners?

Assessment – how are you planning to check students’ learning?

Health and safety regulations

Give the advanced students more challenging questions and scientific data and graphs to analyse. Pair up less-abled to more advanced students. Provides extra support to the less competent studens.
