Lesson8 of 8 in this unit
SecondaryYear 9 - 10ScienceEnvironmentalBiodiversityDisaster resilienceSustainability
Lesson Summary
In this Science lesson, students consider the relationship between bushfires, climate change and the four spheres. They are supported to consider the complexity of these relationships through scaffolded discussion and multimedia content. Students will have the opportunity to create a visual presentation that will aim to discuss and articulate their understanding of bushfires using visual conventions.
Learning intentions
Students will:
- understand the four spheres and their relationship to bushfires
- understand how climate change contributes to bushfires
Success criteria
Students can:
- identify how each sphere may impact the likelihood and intensity of a bushfire
- analyse how a bushfire might impact the spheres
- discuss the effect of climate change on these spheres and as a result, on bushfire intensity and regularity
