The goal is to cross the playground on one side to the other without being caught by the other team.

  • Ages: 7-14 years
  • Duration: 10 minutes
  • Teams: 2
  • material: no

educational objectives

show the important role played by trees that absorbed carbon dioxide for greenhouse gas emissions does not accumulate in the atmosphere and harm the environment.

rules

  • Split the group into two teams: one team represents the trees and the other team is the molecules of carbon dioxide.
  • Explain "carbon dioxide" that they must pretend to float in the air like a gas molecule avoiding being absorbed by trees. If they get caught, they get oxygen and air must leave the game
  • Explain the "trees" they must catch claiming carbon dioxide, "catching them. They are rooted in the ground and feet together, they can not move.
  • The spread in the air game so they do not touch other trees when their arms are extended.
  • The molecules are aligned along the starting line and start trying to get through the trees to reach the other side.
  • once all the molecules are passed through the trees or were caught, the game stops and we reverse the roles.
  • You would probably change or add a few more trees or molecules of carbon dioxide to simulate changes in the environment.

Feedback

Discuss the fact that adding more trees, there will be fewer greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere
