River Habitat Pack
The River Habitat Pack, developed as part of the Bridging the Border project, is principally aimed at 7-11 year olds, Key Stage 2 (England) and Primary 4-7 (Scotland). However, many of the activities can be adapted to make them accessible to a wider range of pupils. The concepts covered include habitats, making and using identification keys, water quality, life cycles, adaptation, food chains and conservation.

The material contained in the pack comprises a whole unit of work with the activities following a logical progression. However, the contents can also be broken down into a series of discrete activities, making it possible for you to select any combination based on your specific requirements.
Sets of the re-usable resources have been included for reference and for photocopying. The pack has been designed so that there are enough re-usable resources for a class to work in 4 groups of 4-6 for the 'group' activities and in 8 groups of 2-3 for the 'paired' activities.
