4b: Feelings and behaviour

Children from Moor Allerton Hall Primary School in Leeds discuss their opinions and feelings about climate change.

Read the statements.  Which, of any, do you think reflects best the feelings and opinions of the children in your school? (No need to document your thoughts)

• Climate Change is urgent and we need to act now
• If we start doing something now we can sort it
• Climate Change might mean the end of the world by the time I grow up
• I’m not sure what I can do that will make any difference
• I don’t like to think about Climate Change much because I feel scared when I do
• I think it’s important we all do what we can
• I’m confused, I don’t know what to think or feel
• It’s important to me and my family to do what we can to help the climate
• Adults I know don’t seem to really  care much about the planet.

The tasks below are designed to help you learn a little bit more about how your children feel. These tasks are optional and if it is not appropriate for you to undertake these tasks at the moment, simply put NA into the text box within the task.
