The two proposed English lessons aim to provide a basic understanding of the environment and climate change. As part of this exciting topic, students can learn new vocabulary in a playful way. They also practice discussing and dealing with social issues both in English and in relation to the English-speaking world.
We use the free app Solar for Schools from the UK company Solar Options for Schools. We also use it as part of our ethics lesson.
