This is a YouTube video and a PDF download about the Northern Gannets which live on Gannet Rock on the British Channel Island of Alderney. During World War II, in 1940 there was just one pair of gannets on the rock, but with the Nazis on the island and the local people evacuated to the mainland, fishing declined and so the gannets flourished. You can track the gannets migration pattern online too! http://www.youtube.com/timedtext_video?v=ibGiSKZU8jQ&ref=share Please leave me a review and I will send you any other resource of your choice for free (contact me: office@oceansproject.com).

A true story from Royston Raymond's book 'Fishermen's Tales' which recalls the local stories of fishermen from the island of Alderney. This particular story is about Royston's time at sea with a fisherman known as 'The Colonel'. Read by the author himself Royston Raymond. Would make a lovely addition to a literacy lesson, or a lesson about the ocean, World Oceans Day, or the jobs that people do. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3aeTL3Xok4&list=PLd9pxOIcWRI1Mml_r_yvGZnP1XCwOms1I I've transcribed the story into a downloadable PDF format for use in school.

A more technical resource than my usual ones, but I hope it will bring genetics to life in a more interesting way for students who are passionate about the wider world, oceans, animals, natural sciences, and marine biology. Would make a great addition to World Oceans Day topics, as well as science, English as a foreign language, and the human life cycle. Or just for fun.

References to the use of ambergris during the Black Death, as part of the King of England's breakfast, and use by the ancient Egyptians. A fun introductory topic to themes such as chemistry, World Oceans Day, environment, conservation, whales, oceans, and the seaside. But equally of use for lessons on history, geography, smoking, laws, synthetic chemicals, and smell as one of our senses.

I've created a series of free videos following my own Triops tank, and will be creating further resources in the future, with suggestions for experiments and observations. The triops kits can be purchased relatively cheaply (online or from toy stores), have everything you need in them, or you could set up your own tank, and just purchase the eggs online (a number of different species are available). Triops are small crustaceans, related to woodlice, horseshoe crabs, and lobsters, and were around during the triassic period, when the dinosaurs were. They have changed very little since then which is why we say they are 'living fossils'. The eggs hatch around 24-48 hours, and the triops have a lifespan of approximately 90 days. In the first few weeks they shed their skins daily, doubling in size most days. They are both male and female, will lay eggs, burrow in sand, have three eyes, and gills in their legs to help them breathe. They are great for teaching about life cycles and species, as well as having students come up with their own theories, hypothesis, and experiments. For example, will the triops grow bigger if they live in a bigger tank, what are the ideal hatching conditions, what foods do they like best, are they affected by things like light, temperature, or the pH of the water? What can you do to prolong the lifespan of a triops?

A brief look at the nautical origins of the English language nursery rhyme 'Jack Be Nimble, Jack Be Quick, Jack Jump Over the Candlestick'. Includes a free YouTube video and free, downloadable PDF file. This resource could be used by students with English as a foreign language, as part of a rhymes or poetry lesson, for World Oceans Day topics, or alongside any class themes about oceans, pirates, explorers, or the Caribbean. It may also be of use in a debate about women on ships, and the historical role of pregnancy in the legal system. May also be of interest to students learning about Yellow Fever, vaccinations, immune system, and effects of alcohol.

A resource I created for students who want to understand more about the world. A PDF file, that covers: - THE SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION of why the sea is salty (references to Isaac Newton, Christopher Wren, King of England, and Edmond Halley's 'continental weathering' theory. We then look at how the question was finally answered in 1979 during an expedition to the black smokers and hydrothermal vents on the Pacific Ocean floor). - THE FOLKLORE EXPLANATION of why the sea is salty (references to the Vikings, Norse Mythology, Grotti's Song, the Orkney Islands of Scotland and North Atlantic Ocean, and the story of the ants and the friendly giant from the Philippines). - Suggestions for follow up activities The file could be broken into sections as a longer topic or workbook, or given as a stand alone project or introduction to a new topic. There are multiple elements that cross over for topics on Vikings, oceans, exploration, biology, geography, slavery, storytelling , folklore, cultural diversity, and as inspiration and scientists who overcame adversity. May be suitable for gifted younger learners, or for secondary school students, STEM clubs, or students with English as a foreign language.
