Lesson Overview
This awesome ESL lesson on climate change uses the topic to introduce new words, grammar and fun activities. ESL students have identified this language as important because climate change is going to shape our future so learning the vocabulary is necessary. We recommend using this lesson with all A2 level ESL students because there is something for everyone.
This ESL lesson on climate change breaks the topic down into three parts; causes, problems and solutions before introducing the grammar point of ‘should’. Our favorite exercise is the ‘solutions’ activity because it gives hope about the future, while enabling students to learn and progress.
