Synopsis
In this lesson, students use graphing and measurement to collect data on the potential causes of sea level rise as they visit different learning stations. Students consider how to use art as a medium to inform others about their learning and dispel misconceptions.
Inquire: Students complete a graphing activity to represent the changes in sea level rise and predict why this is happening.
Investigate: Students test their ideas about why the sea level is rising, discover their misconceptions, and confirm predictions through measurement and graphing.
Inspire: Students link art to awareness and create a mural to spread knowledge about sea level rise in their own community and dispel misconceptions.
