The British Antarctic Survey has developed an “Antarctic Schools Pack” which is downloadable and provides images and information on living and working in Antarctica, science in Antarctica, the Antarctic Treaty, geology, ice, climate, ozone hole, lake ecosystems, marine species, tourism, and environmental protection and conservation. This website also has a picture gallery, posters and an interactive section called, “Fun and Games.”

Activity: Divide your class into expert groups. Either have them choose one of the topics from the Schools Pack list, or assign topics to groups. Have them read the information and use a “jigsaw” technique to share with the rest of the class.
