A collection of photos taken in and around the World War Two bunkers on the British Channel Island of Alderney, which was evacuated and became the base for four prisoner of war camps, and a large fortified wall. Photos are taken at Bibette Head and across the island, including the Anti Aircraft bunker known as 'The Odeon'. I made a video of the bunkers (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsXKBVzIBWo), and run free virtual field trips of the bunkers for schools through Skype in the Classroom.

A how to video on YouTube, and a free PDF download with instructions on how to make your own ocean slime. A fun activity for World Oceans Day, to run alongside an ocean theme, or as part of a science lesson about mixtures and compounds. The ingredients for the slime are basically water, liquid glue, liquid starch, glitter, and food colouring. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbxZOL55W9E&list=PLd9pxOIcWRI1X9ils3yFk9A_vvedFUiYX

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?

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.

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 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.

How many oceans are there on planet Earth? There are five oceans in the world, from biggest to smallest they are: the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Southern (Antarctic) Ocean, and the Arctic Ocean. The waters of the oceans mix together thanks to the movement of currents which create the World (global) ocean. About 71% of the planet’s surface is covered with our oceans. What is the difference between an ocean and a sea? An ocean is larger than the sea, and is not surrounded by land in the same way as a sea is, for example, the Baltic Sea or the Black Sea. The worksheet accompanies this video on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKjnBL22XWI).
