Description

Get kids THINKING! Promote lively discussions and critical thinking about global warming and related issues using a "Two Truths and a Lie" activity.

Get this activity at a steep discount in our Climate Change Activities Bundle!

In this activity, students will:

  • Read (in pairs or groups) a "Two Truths and a Lie" card that has 2 true facts about climate change and one lie or misinformation. (15 total cards are provided.)
  • Discuss which choice they believe is the lie on the card.
  • Turn the card over to discover the lie and learn more about the truth.
  • Answer questions on a 4-page follow-up worksheet that corresponds to the information in the cards.

This activity leads to very vibrant discussions about climate change. We've been amazed at the group and class discussions it fosters!

Topics Include:

  • Sea ice
  • Measuring climate change
  • Greenhouse gases
  • Polar bears
  • Sea levels
  • Natural causes of climate change
  • Fossil fuels
  • Carbon emissions
  • Future temps
  • Extreme weather
  • Oceans
  • Historical temps
  • Carbon dioxide

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSMS-ESS3-5
Ask questions to clarify evidence of the factors that have caused the rise in global temperatures over the past century. Examples of factors include human activities (such as fossil fuel combustion, cement production, and agricultural activity) and natural processes (such as changes in incoming solar radiation or volcanic activity). Examples of evidence can include tables, graphs, and maps of global and regional temperatures, atmospheric levels of gases such as carbon dioxide and methane, and the rates of human activities. Emphasis is on the major role that human activities play in causing the rise in global temperatures.
NGSSMS-ESS3-4
Construct an argument supported by evidence for how increases in human population and per-capita consumption of natural resources impact Earth’s systems. Examples of evidence include grade-appropriate databases on human populations and the rates of consumption of food and natural resources (such as freshwater, mineral, and energy). Examples of impacts can include changes to the appearance, composition, and structure of Earth’s systems as well as the rates at which they change. The consequences of increases in human populations and consumption of natural resources are described by science, but science does not make the decisions for the actions society takes.
NGSSHS-ESS3-5
Analyze geoscience data and the results from global climate models to make an evidence-based forecast of the current rate of global or regional climate change and associated future impacts to Earth's systems. Examples of evidence, for both data and climate model outputs, are for climate changes (such as precipitation and temperature) and their associated impacts (such as on sea level, glacial ice volumes, or atmosphere and ocean composition). Assessment is limited to one example of a climate change and its associated impacts.
NGSSHS-ESS3-4
Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces impacts of human activities on natural systems. Examples of data on the impacts of human activities could include the quantities and types of pollutants released, changes to biomass and species diversity, or areal changes in land surface use (such as for urban development, agriculture and livestock, or surface mining). Examples for limiting future impacts could range from local efforts (such as reducing, reusing, and recycling resources) to large-scale geoengineering design solutions (such as altering global temperatures by making large changes to the atmosphere or ocean).
