Positives

• There are 108 stories on the climate crisis timeline, enough to create an entire learning unit.
• The article includes several teaching ideas.
• There are links to related articles, podcasts, and books that will enable teachers to enhance their lessons.
• The resource also includes links to even more teaching materials via a helpful sidebar.
  

Additional Prerequisites

• Teachers can share this website via social media or print it to provide a hard copy.
• Some timeline stories involve slavery and genocide, so teachers should prepare for questions.
• Students should have prior knowledge of the climate crisis.

Differentiation

• Since there are 108 stories, History teachers can assign research projects to individual students and have the students include other significant events that happened in their given years.
• Each timeline event presents only a headline of information, so teachers can have students work in small groups to provide the details of each contributing factor.
• Art teachers can have students create sketches for each main event on the timeline.
• More advanced students can read the full articles included in some events, while those with low reading stamina can read just a few of the events.
• The readings include a lot of content-specific vocabulary, so ELL students may benefit from using a tool like the Google Translate Chrome extension to translate the page.
