TOTAL TIME 45 MINUTES

To be able to describe the carbon cycle and analyze the consequences of
LEARNING disruptions in the carbon cycle.
OBJECTIVE

The images of Buckyballs, diamonds, and coal will be

Starter displayed to the children to decode the topic of the lesson.
The students will pair up and share three facts about carbon
as a group activity.
The main activity is divided into four subtasks. The students
are going to arrange the keywords and their definitions, then
