A colouring page I created for my biology and geography students as part of a module on habitats, ecology, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals. Based on the British slow worm.
"The Anguis fragilis, or slow worm, is a limbless lizard native to Eurasia. It is sometimes called a blindworm. Its German name 'Blindschleiche' is derived from the Old High German plintslîcho meaning 'blinding creeper', perhaps because of its lustrous scales.
Slow worms are semifossorial[1] (burrowing) lizards, spending much of the time hiding underneath objects. The skin of slow worms is smooth with scales that do not overlap one another. Like many other lizards, slow worms autotomize, meaning that they have the ability to shed their tails to escape predators. While the tail regrows, it does not reach its original length". (Wikipedia)

I created this colouring page for my class as part of our module on coastal environments. I asked students to link the picture to things we had learnt about in class - ecosystems, habitats, pollution, rural and urban environments, industry, shipping, buildings, tourism, coastal management, and erosion.

I created this picture of a lighthouse for my students as part of our module on oceans, seas, and hazardous journeys. But we also used it as part of work on engineering and constructing buildings in seemingly impossible places.
"The Alderney Lighthouse (also known as Mannez Lighthouse) is a stone lighthouse built on the North-East coast of the island of Alderney. It was constructed in 1912[1] to protect shipping from the dangerous waters of the Alderney Race and the numerous rocks surrounding Alderney". (Wikipedia)

A colouring page that I created for my geography students as part of a module on seasonal employment and life on Britain's coast. The buildings are on Braye Beach on the small, British Channel Island of Alderney. They were originally used by fishermen to store their nets and boats, but were then taken over by soldiers in World War Two. Today they provide accommodation to seasonal workers and tourists who stay at the island's 'Braye Beach Hotel'.

A colouring page I created for my students as part of our module on coastal erosion and also used for a lesson on World War Two. Based on the 'hanging rock' on the British Channel Island of Alderney at Longis beach.
"Longis is a settlement in the south-east of Alderney in the Channel Islands, with a beach, island fort, nature reserve, and remains of German, Roman and prehistoric occupation.
Longis nature reserve is the largest nature reserve on the island, with an area of 103 hectares.
Longis Bay Beach is a popular tourist spot. It has an anti-tank wall from the Second World War. This massive, concrete structure curves right around the bay above the high-water mark and was built by the Germans during the Occupation of the early 1940s. There is provision for an anti-tank gun in the middle of its length (long since removed).
For many years it was believed that Alderney's main harbour was located within Longis Bay (as opposed to Braye). A line of boulders was said to point to evidence of a Roman breakwater.
Raz Island, on the Eastern arm of the bay, is connected to the rest of Alderney by a causeway, concreted over by the Germans during the Second World War. It is almost entirely covered by a fort which in recent decades has been used as a house, tea rooms, and as a base for an oyster farm.
Longis has a standing Roman dwelling of significant archaeological importance. Until relatively recently its origin and purpose remained a mystery, the local population referring to it as the 'Nunnery". It has recently been partly excavated. It is pre-dated by find evidence of megalithic or early stone age occupation sites within the Longis Common area.
On the high ground overlooking the western side of the bay stands Essex Castle and the Hanging Rock. A legend says that the reason Hanging Rock overhangs is that the French wanted Alderney so much they tried to tow the island to France by attaching ropes to it, but only succeeded in pulling this large rock out of the ground".

A drawing of a block of butter that I did for my class as part of our module on health, nutrition, and healthy eating. We were in the former Soviet Republic of Georgia and talking about food traditions around the world, so we spoke about British recipes and butter being golden yellow on the Channel Islands due to the Guernsey cows. We also spoke about rationing during the World Wars.

A colouring page that I created for my class as part of our geography lessons on coastal tourism in Britain. What do we like to do at the beach, why do people enjoy beach holidays, what is the difference between a sunrise and sunset? Based around the British Channel Island of Alderney.

A colouring page that I created for my students as part of a module on seasides and oceans and the sustainability of fishing and farming in Britain. The page was inspired by lobster pots next to the harbour on the British Channel Island of Alderney. The local fishermen sell lobsters in the Channel Islands and in France and England. During World War Two fishing was restricted but a number of fishermen died when their nets got caught up on mines underwater.
