Description
It can be difficult to find fun, hands on activities to use when teaching climate. Include ice cores in your climate and geologic time unit to increase engagement!
Included in this lesson:
1. A 26 slide PowerPoint lesson on glaciers and ice cores. It teaches students how and where ice cores are drilled, how they are analyzed, and what we can learn from them. Key vocabulary: Glaciers, ice cores, glaciologist, proxy record, isotopes, albedo effect.
2. An ice core lab (4 page student worksheet, teacher directions, tips, and answer key). In this lab students will analyze a simulated ice core, and then graph real temperature and carbon dioxide data from an Antarctic ice core. FYI- this lab will take a few days to prepare, so plan early!
