This lesson is part of Tropical Rainforests, a Geography unit designed for students in KS2, but can also be taught as a stand alone lesson. All resources are compatible with both Microsoft Office and Google Workspace.
First, the presentation introduces students to the different layers of the rainforest and some of the animals that live in each layer.
Students then complete a range of activities:
Activity 1:
In pairs, students match the layers of a tropical rainforest to descriptions.
Easier - Students have multicoloured descriptions. They match each layer to one green, blue and purple description.
Harder - Students have plain black descriptions. They match each layer to three other descriptions.
Activity 2:
Students identify and label the four layers of a tropical rainforest.
Easier - Students write one word for each layer.
Harder - Students write two words for each layer.
Extension:
Students cut out pictures of tropical rainforest animals and stick them in the layer in which they live.
