This 22 day, phenomenon based biology unit anchors every lesson in one driving question students actually care about: Can planting more trees solve climate change? Students explore the anchoring phenomenon: the hockey stick CO graph and investigate carbon cycling across the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere.

Stop piecing together a climate change unit. This one is done.
This 22-day, phenomenon-based biology unit anchors every lesson in one driving question students actually care about: Can planting more trees solve climate change?
Students explore the anchoring phenomenon: the hockey stick CO₂ graph and investigate carbon cycling across the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere. They build toward an evidence-based answer using real labs, data analysis, and three-dimensional assessments aligned to NGSS, TEKS, and PA STEELS.
Built for every learner in your room. Every activity comes in 3 differentiation levels: Honors extensions, on-grade-level, and scaffolded versions with graphic organizers, sentence starters, and partially completed diagrams for students with IEPs and ELLs. Low prep. Print and go.
