Biodiversity Live Lesson 2021
Biodiversity is AWESOME! From mini-beasts to mighty trees, It’s magical, mysterious and magnificent. And it affects and makes possible all parts of our lives.
This Live Lesson is a series of workshops all about Biodiversity, with special guests from the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS), Fairtrade Schools, and Children's Author and Veterinarian Gill Lewis courtesy of Scottish Friendly Children's Book Tour and Scottish Book Trust.
Primary Schools
Meet the wolves living at Highland Wildlife Park and learn about what caused wolves to become extinct in Scotland, what Pine Hoverflies and wolves have in common, how powerful words are and how they help us look after nature, and how choosing Fairtrade makes a huge difference.
You can find the answers to questions asked during the lessons in our Q&A summary.
Further resources to accompany each part of the lesson can be found below.
