Resource type:
Part of the 'What Is It Like Where you Live' website, it presents information on the location of forests, the threats to them and the animals and plants found there.
How it maps to the curriculum
Strand: Environ. Awareness & Care
Strand unit: Environmental awareness
Content objective: This resource should enable a child to:
- become aware of the Earth's renewable and non-renewable resources
- come to appreciate the need to conserve the Earth's resources
- recognise how the actions of people may have an impact on environments
Suggestions for use: The information is very solid. The illustrations too are excellent. Ok, the home pages are a bit dated - but the information is excellent.
