Positives

• This resource promotes various skills such as communication, creativity, confidence, self-expression, writing, and acting.
• Students have been provided with a definition of the term "monologue" and a link to various climate monologues for inspiration.

Additional Prerequisites

• Students should be taught to speak confidently and audibly when presenting their monologue, so a vocal warm-up exercise might help them prepare.
  
• Teachers can print the student handout or share it with students digitally.
  

Differentiation

• Teachers could help students in writing the script by setting guidelines for the topics, storylines, or length.
• Advanced students could be tasked to write a monologue about a specific climate change issue, such as climate anxiety, climate migration, national security concerns, sea level rise, or species extinctions.
• Before students present their monologue, teachers could help students practice speaking in various pitches, tones, and volumes to display different moods and feelings.
  
• Support students that may want to share their own personal climate change story by making sure that all students in the class treat each other with respect.
• Another recommended resource is Solve Climate Change While Acting.
