The ice is melting
In this set of four activities from the European Space Agency, students explore the impacts of global warming and melting ice on the Earth. They learn the difference between land ice and sea ice, and will investigate the respective effects of these melting. They then design their own experiment to examine how melting ice changes the temperature of the atmosphere. The project ends with learning about glaciers, and by looking at satellite images of a glacier to consider how much it has melted over a period of time.
