This week, we are going to look at what happens when rainforests disappear. Look at the lesson presentation and watch the video below.
Then choose an activity to do.
Either:
Use the effects of deforestation sheet and sort out the positive and negative effects of deforestation in order of importance.
Or:
Look through the debate cards and decide which are for and against deforestation. Choose one character to be and write / record a short speech explaining your point of view. There is also a purple mash sheet you could choose to use instead.
In class, we are going to run this as a debate so trying to explain your point of view out loud to someone is a good way to tackle this. If possible, get them to argue the opposite point of view so you can turn it into a proper debate.
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
