Climate change – creative writing prompts Age of students 11-15
Description This set creates prompts / situations that the students are given in order to raise awareness about climate change problems ( deforestation from the perspective of a forest or a homeless animal , pollution from the perspective of the oceans , animals , rising temperatures from the perspective of a starving polar bear ), but also about issues that are very real nowadays ( bullying , loneliness , depression , wars , testing on animals , circus animals , shopping not adopting etc ). The prompts were created together with the students and allow them to express themselves from any perspective they choose , thus benefitting those that are more introverted . We also got some other intriguing perspectives to write from : the Earth ‘ s consciousness , a sad human who wants to become a robot , an A . I . who wants to become human , a fallen angel , a very old comet etc . This can be played individually or in teams ( which makes it more difficult as the team members have to combine various perspectives , find a way for their characters to meet and interact in a manner that is coherent ). We have tested both ways and students love the idea .
