Two lessons about frozen oceans. The lessons cover: Terminology about frozen oceans - a matching exercise. Reasons why the ocean freezes - an annotated diagram. The frozen ocean food chain - a ‘create a mobile’ activity (scissors, glue and string needed). There are also some interesting starters (one using Ice Road Truckers) and a couple of clips from Frozen Planet interspersed, with thinking questions (iPlayer log in needed).

Complete lesson on mangroves. The lesson looks at: What are mangroves? What is the global distribution of mangroves? Why have mangroves been destroyed? Why are mangroves important?

There is a true/false plenary quiz at the very end. The lesson will easily last for 1 hour, and could be made to last longer.
