Issue to action: Science
Global Citizenship provides a wealth of real-life contexts for learning Science. Issues of sustainability, gender and health are explored in this series of lessons.
These materials were created by Science teachers in Scotland and are designed for use at BGE levels 3 and 4. All the activities connect to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and you can find some introductory activities to the goals here
The materials explore 3 themes – plastic waste, gender balance in Science and health and hygiene – with short introductory activities as well as a series of lessons exploring the topics in more detail.
The lessons and worksheets in the booklet are supported by PowerPoints which you can download below. All activities are mapped to ‘Experiences and Outcomes’ as well as the relevant Sustainable Development Goal.
