Busy Things Polar Related Activities
Explore ready-made templates on Busy Things where you can: write about the Polar ice caps and the effect of global warming; produce Arctic/Antarctic fact files; create an Arctic/Antarctic scene and complete interactive activities for labelling an Arctic habitat and sorting animals that live in the Polar regions.
The Polar Ice Caps
The Polar regions of the globe are the Arctic (North) and the Antarctic (South). Use the text and picture tools to present the facts you know about the Polar ice caps.
Animals of the Arctic and Antarctic
The Polar regions of the globe are made up of the Arctic (North) and the Antarctic (South).
Use the text and picture tools to present what you know about a Polar animal.
Antarctic Scene
The Antarctic is made up of the continent Antarctica and lots of ice. In the Antarctic, most of the animals that exist there are carnivores because it is too cold for plants to grow. Use the text and picture tools to create a scene and write about the Antarctic.
Arctic Scene
Polar regions only have two seasons - summer and winter. Even in the summer, it is still very cold! Use the text and picture tools to create a scene and write about the Arctic
Global Warming and its Effects
Global warming is caused by many factors. If the Antarctic ice sheet melted completely, sea levels would rise by around 65 metres, which would mean London would be underwater!
Use the text and picture tools to present some facts you know about the Polar ice caps. There are useful facts in the "guidance" to help you.
Antarctic Fact File
Use the text and picture tools to write about the facts you know about the Antarctic.
Arctic Fact File
Use the text and picture tools to write about the facts you know about the Arctic.
Arctic Colouring
Choose an outline and use the tools provided to colour it in. Add some eyes to finish it off.
An Arctic habitat
Increase and demonstrate geographical knowledge with this labelling activity.
Glaciers
Use the text and picture tools to write about facts you know about glaciers and icebergs.
Global Habitats
Increase and demonstrate geographical and animal diversity knowledge with this classifying activity.
Northern Lights
Use the paint tools to make patterns of glowing colours just like the Northern Lights!
Sorting Polar Animals
Sort the animals by whether they live in the Arctic or the Antarctic.
Global Climate Zones
Sort the names and demonstrate geographical knowledge with this labelling activity.
