Working in pairs or small groups, encourage the pupils to
do some research about an animal in danger of their
choice, in either the UK or their own region. Ask the pupils
to find or draw a picture and write a short description of
the animal. They can either take a photo using a mobile
device and record their description, or you can show the
pupils how to use a simple digital presentation tool which
the pairs or groups can later share with the class. You can
also upload them to your shared school community web
space.
Note: Always ensure you and your pupils follow your
institution’s e-safety policy before working online.
