Watching a Glacier (7-11)
This activity uses satellite images of the Earth to show how a glacier has changed over almost three decades. Children are asked to measure the glacier to find out how much it has changed in size and to compare false-colour images to suggest how this helps us find out more about environmental change. Guidance on how to run the activity can be found on page 9 of the teacher guide. This resource has been produced by the National Centre for Earth Observation.
