This resource is designed to consolidate and support pupils’ understanding and enjoyment of the survival and disaster unit we teach as part of our curriculum. In order to engage and motivate pupils learning from home, it has numerous activities which children can follow independently and with very few additional resources required eg, match-up, feature spotting, code breakers, language analysis, reading comprehension, extended writing pieces and access to the internet for research. The activities have been designed to fuel imagination and introduce them to ambitious vocabulary. There are activities that emphasise the importance of cross-curricular learning, from history to ICT.
