This Lesson Plan provides some generic maps, graphs, and data tables for use with the Data Literacy Cube. Because this is a differentiated resource, it is appropriate for multiple grade bands.
Students analyze surface air temperature anomalies to identify change with respect to different latitudes across the world.
Students will analyze how surface (skin) temperatures vary across a community and determine what factors contribute to this variation. Students will describe how human activity can affect the local environment.
Test your knowledge of sea level rise and its effect on global populations.
Students will analyze a graph showing the amounts of peak energy received at local noon each day over the year changes with different latitudes.
Students use albedo values of common surfaces along with photographic images of Earth taken from the International Space Station to make an argument about specific anthropogenic activities that impact Earth’s albedo.
Students watch a video introducing the concept of albedo and answer questions.
