Summer Term 2011
Make a positive difference and try our “Floodrisk!” activity
This Summer term, Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots has chosen to focus on projects which help us to understand the impact of climate change on the physical and human geography of the UK.
In our “Floodrisk!” activity, your students will learn about the varied topography of the UK and discover which areas may disappear underwater if water levels rise. Is your school at risk?
How will our lives change if widespread flooding occurs? What could our homes look like? What are some of the practical problems we could experience?

Don’t Forget, Tell us About your activities!
Don’t forget to post a story on the website to keep us updated about your project and compare notes with other schools.
