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).

Can your students identify the animal the poo came from, what kind of diet the animal might eat, is it a herbivore, omnivore, or carnivore for example. Where does poo come from and how does the digestive system work, does the digestive system of a cow work the same as the digestive system of a human? What can we learn from poo? How can poo be used to fertilise flowers or to grow mushrooms or vegetables in the garden? What happens if farm waste enters the river system? Can it make people sick if a dog poops on the beach?

What are the features of living things? How do we know if something is alive? A colouring page to help students remember.

A collection of photos of geology and rocks from around Great Britain. This resource will be added to in time.

This was a really fun activity that I came up with for all of my geography classes (from Key Stage 2 to IGCSE) whilst teaching in the former Soviet Republic of Georgia. I had no idea whether the Queen (or her office!) would actually reply, but the students were delighted to receive a letter along with information about the Royal family, and of course a letter with the Buckingham Palace postal mark on it! This was hung in pride of place in the school entrance, much to the delight of visiting parents. The activity is based on the National Curriculum for geography, and how to address an envelope, along with understanding the differences between country, county, postal code, and street name. But is equally beneficial as part of a literacy lesson, introducing yourself to a stranger, or for talking about the cultural differences, or being on holiday. For example, Georgia has no postmen or women, and there are no post boxes, whereas Britain has red post boxes, and our stamp has an image of the Queen’s head on it. The worksheet itself is hand drawn as I had no resources in Georgia, other than access to a photocopier in the city. I hope you will enjoy this activity as much as we did. I sent each class’s letters in one envelope, we heard back a month or so later, mainly due to Georgia not really having a postal system at that time.

Could be used in a module about Vikings, Anglo Saxons, or for local knowledge on the Isle of Portland on the south coast of England.

A settlements themed colouring page that I created for my students as they learnt about the differences between hamlets, villages, towns, and cities. This is a picture of our local pub or public house on the tiny British Channel Island of Alderney which has a population of 1000 people. We spoke about what a pub is, and that you don’t get them in all countries in the world. They are something that are fairly common in Britain and a part of British culture.
