Air Pollution Worksheet

The worksheet begins with a concise description of air pollution and directs learners to talk with a partner about the issue. They then generate three causes rather than choosing from a prewritten list, followed by a discussion of changes people could make. This sequence moves from shared understanding to cause identification and solution-oriented thinking. Open responses allow teachers to assess the specificity and plausibility of each idea without exposing fixed test content or model answers.
