Do Now: At your table, write down on a white board what gases you think are greenhouse gases and which gases in our atmosphere are not. Make sure everyone in your group agrees. Modeling the Greenhouse Effect - Get a handout
Models are representations of a thing or a phenomenon. There are always parts that are accurate and parts that are not. Those are the limitations of the model. On your sheet, make a list of the accuracies and limitations of the greenhouse effect simulation model. Share with the class. Fist to Five: I feel like I understand what greenhouse gases are and how they cause the earth to stay and get warmer. Greenhouse Effect Quiz on Google Classroom. You may use any notes. GET OUT THE CRAYONS! How can you turn the science of the greenhouse effect into art? Maybe a t-shirt? Yes, let's design a t-shirt about the greenhouse effect.
Exit ticket: Show your favorite part of your t-shirt design to one teacher. Have a great break.

Human Model of Greenhouse Effect - Students not moving should be creating a model in their notebook of what we are seeing. How will you draw what is being represented?
WRITE IN YOUR NOTEBOOK At your table, discuss and come up with an explanation for what happens when more CO2 is added to the atmosphere. Please elaborate..do not just give a three word answer. Explain how CO2 is affecting things. Let's explore those greenhouse gases more: Please get out your computers and open up the Molecules and Light PhET Simulation.
