Welcome to the wiki resource site for the book, Teaching Climate Change to Adolescents: Reading, Writing, and Making a Difference, by Richard Beach, Jeff Share, and Allen Webb

 

The purpose of the book, Teaching Climate Change to Adolescents: Reading, Writing, and Making a Difference, published by Routledge Press and co-distributed by the National Council of Teachers of English, is to provide English language arts (ELA) teachers with pedagogy, frameworks, resources, lessons, and activities for engaging with issues and aspects of climate change through literature, composition, speaking/listening, and media/digital literacy units.
