Sow the Seed

Pupils explore the impact of climate change on farmers worldwide and do something active in response


Climate change is having a large impact on agriculture. The livelihoods of 2.5 billion people globally depend on their ability to successfully grow seeds. The Sow the Seed resource encourages active global citizenship, helping pupils to understand more about the issue and inspiring them to take action.

Teachers select from the range of activities below to allow their pupils to complete the wallchart. Pupils use the wallchart to track their learning as they carry out these activities. They must collect evidence of them learning more about the issue and alsotaking some action about it to complete the wallchart successfully. Pupils must begin by planting some seeds of their own!

You need a wallchart to allow your pupils to track their progress as they complete their activites, which you can download below.

(A Welsh language version is available)

Sow the Seed is aimed at pupils aged 7-14
