Hello River Detectives in the north central region !
ADAPT Loddon Mallee have produced a Kids Climate Change Activity Book, including a climate change snakes and ladders game, for middle to upper primary school students filled with interactive puzzles and a story that follows Griffin the Growling Grass Frog on his mission to discover why the Loddon Mallee landscape is changing and his wetlands are drying up.
Many children are engaged with environmental issues including climate change, but often resources are nationally or globally based leaving people feeling powerless to take action. By keeping the story local and providing activities and choices the children can make at home, they may feel more positive about what they can do to make an impact.
If you are a school in the Loddon Mallee education region a sample booklet has been sent to your school (c/o of the principal) but it may not have reached you amid all the mail. You can check out the booklet and register to receive a free class set of hard copies at the ADAPT Loddon Mallee website.
A PDF of the booklet and gameboard are also now on the River Detectives website in Resource River Bank.
