Summary Note "Climate change: it used to loom over our future, distant and abstract, but now we are seeing how it has led to devastating storms, wildfires and heat waves. This is the decade to join with others globally to take action against the threat of climate change, and teachers have an important role to play in preparing young citizens to do just that. This book, for the first time, provides you with the support to facilitate these big conversations in the classroom - demonstrating how scientific concepts are developed through the language you use and strategically handing over to your students. It makes the links between the Australian Curriculum: Science and Sustainability cross-curriculum priority, with a focus on developing students' oral and written language. It includes reliable resources and examples, including focus texts that identify the important language students will need to master - with additional activities and inquiries to guide their learning. Finally, this text includes important actions that you and your students can take to help mitigate climate change, empowering students of all ages to make a difference." - Back cover.
