Abstract:
"The purpose of the Climate Change and Coral Reefs Teachers Guide is to provide teachers in American Samoa with lesson plans that will facilitate instruction on climate change and, more specifically, its impacts on the Territorys coral reefs. Coral reefs are an integral part of South Pacific island communities such as American Samoa, and it is important for students to have a basic knowledge of the likely effects of climate change on these valuable ecosystems. The provided lesson plans are themed and consist of an objective, relevant vocabulary words, presentation points, and interactive classroom activities complete with materials lists and worksheets. While the lessons are designed so that no outside knowledge on climate change and coral reefs is required, it is recommended that teachers review other relevant information on this subject matter. This guide is intended for students between grades 7 and 12 in American Samoa, and can be adapted to suit different grades."
