Antarctica landscape tagging

Written by Tony_Cassidy on December 13th, 2008

Produce as a starter, just a bit of fun, I’ve used this strategy before with coasts. Can you name the landscape features from the tags? Warning- not all fit the background images- well, there must be some differentiation.  ;)  All images and music are creative commons.

Can be download from here.

Go on then…

I’m not a Christmas fan- but Year 7 seem to like this.

 

Sorry have been naughty with the music, it was made a long time ago. No excuse I know, but it’s for the children. Can be downloaded here  (better quality with an IWB) with a brief PowerPoint.

Find me update (flog an idea)…

Written by Tony_Cassidy on December 7th, 2008

I’ve now updated R.G. with the find me water task answers, looks better when downloaded. I tend to do strategies across a Key Stage when planning, so I’ve produced another one related to weather events.

This got me thinking about the Great Storm of 1987, I remember it well, part of the roof disappeared and I awoke in a wet bed.

 

Thinking of perhaps a retro case study, of course involving the use of my bed.
