This unit introduces students to ClimateWatch, a citizen science initiative that collects phenological data to shape scientific responses to climate change. The unit involves students in creating a school biodiversity trail inspired by ClimateWatch Trails, which can be used by students to participate in biodiversity surveys. Through this project, students learn about climate change, phenology, and citizen science, and develop a plan to engage the community in the trail. They also identify plants and animals along the trail, create field guides, and prepare materials to support future data analysis.
