Nesta's Ark

Average Rating4.50
(based on 4 reviews)

I run a mobile educational zoo called Nesta's Ark. We visit schools, universities and organisations with our animals. Before setting up my Ark I was a teacher of Design Technology, ICT and Maths as well as a supply teacher covering all age ranges and most subjects. I marked Maths SATs for 7 years and now moderate and mark for OCR. I was an adviser for the Smart Skills ICT KS3 books and wrote the cross curricular links. Here are some of my worksheets that I use along the way.

This package contains a range of labels and instructions. These labels can be used along with other labels available from Nesta’s Ark to be used in several subjects. They are great as starters or for plenaries. It comes with instructions and a spreadsheet with all the data so that teachers can check who should be in each group. Try giving pupils labels and let them find students with matching labels to create a group or have the group labels around the room and get pupils to move to the correct group area. These labels cover several elements of climates such as Vegitation, Precipitation, Day Length and Facts. The climates covered are Cold, Temperate, Subtropical and Tropical.
