A homework booklet which provides three detailed case studies where human activity has affected the environment substantially - the Arctic, the Great Barrier Reef and the Amazon Rainforest. The case studies provide information to be read before students then engage in three sets of differentiated challenge questions and activities.
Created initially for Year 8 but left editable, this could be set as homework over three weeks or as one more substantial homework piece.
