The causes of desertification

Pupils find out about six causes of desertification in this differentiated and accessible lesson resource.

Six information sheets provide clear information and photographs. These can either be displayed or printed out in colour. (A3 printing works best and pupils can move from table to table investigating).

There is a task associated with each information sheet and pupils select from four levels of challenge.

In addition to learning about the causes of desertification there is the opportunity to develop literacy and sentence structure.
