In assembly, start your reflection with the following questions:

a) What natural phenomena related to climate change affects your community?

b) How do the probability, chance and uncertainty concepts apply when analyzing and predicting these phenomena?

公What actions can your community take to reduce climate change's effects?

Once natural phenomena are defined, apply the probability concept in your review and analysis to formulate an action plan.

INQUIRY DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT That's the Question!

Posing a hypothesis is a crucial element of research since it helps to come up with possible explanations about the natural phenomena that take place based on partial knowledge.

In communities, carry out the following activities:

1. Identify the different scenarios related to climate change,such as increasing droughts, temperature changes, and species extinction, among others. Formulate a hypothesis on the possible causes and consequences of this kind of events and write them in your notebook.

2. Review your theories and comment on each one of them.

This is an example of a hypothesis:

"As climate change advances, there is a higher probability of extreme natural phenomena occurring, such as droughts and floods, which affect our daily life and our communities'activities."

Once you research and analyze the data underlying this hypothesis through an estimation of probabilities, you will predict their occurrence and list preventive actions that can be performed in the community.

Seek and Find

Searching for information is a crucial step to find reliable data and prevent misinformation.

1. In community, search in government sources, research institutions,and international organizations for information on climate events,on phenomena of great intensity that have social and environmental impact. Remember that these sources of information can provide historic data, statistics, and predictions about climate.
