HUGE Resource - Amazing Animal Journeys - Adaptations - CBCA Shortlist 2023

This is a HUGE 90+ resource designed to support the brilliant informative text by Jennifer Cossins entitled: "Amazing Animal Adventures". This book gives 25 in-depth examples of worldwide creatures who undertake different migrations. It was also shortlisted for the Eve Pownell Award in the CBCA 2023 Awards.

This meticulously crafted Student Workbook is aimed for use by Stage Two and Stage Three students, and is also designed to complement the Science unit of work "Animal Adaptations". There is also a strong theme in this book of conservation and biodiversity. This workbook is your perfect teaching companion to unlock the captivating world of animal migrations and adaptations.

This resource is divided section-by-section. Each section is based on every individual animal mentioned in the book (25 in total), and is designed to be completely independent. It would seamlessly be integrated into whole class or small group learning.
