Summary
In this session, participants will explore one of the consequences of climate change, that of sea-level rise. Attendees will participate in a lesson which uses blocks to model the topography of various coastlines, and then document the effects of various levels of sea-level rise around the world. Participants will brainstorm possible solutions coastal communities might take in the face of possible sea-level rise. At the end of the session, participants will receive a lesson plan for conducting this activity in their classroom.
