This inspiring resource provides learner profile posters with different images of Captain Climate and statements describing each learner type.
Students will be able to identify with many of the statements presented and be reminded of the positive ways they can interact with others.
Teaching Tips
Positives
The posters can be printed in black and white and then colored in by students, or be used digitally.
Each poster provides positive attributes that students can emulate.
Additional Prerequisites
Teachers will need access to Google Slides.
Differentiation
Have students view all of the posters (either displayed in the classroom or online) and write down at least one attribute from each that applies to them.
Art classes could use the statements to come up with their own images to draw, paint, or design.
English and social studies classes could discuss the meaning of the words used and how those attributes benefit individuals, communities, and society.
Other SubjectToClimate classroom resources include this Earth Day classroom pack and this Back to School classroom pack.
Scientist Notes
The poster contains learner attitudes towards climate education. This is ideal for students to ponder and know which profile fits regarding climate literacy and environmental activism.
