Rivers Resource Book

The Rivers Resource Book is a complete solution for teaching Rivers at Key Stage 2 of the UK National Curriculum.

Dividing the complete subject up into eight distinct topics, or units, the Rivers Resource Book contains, for each topic:
summary background information for teachers,
a set of photocopiable class or group activity sheets, with accompanying teacher's notes,
a set of photocopiable individual worksheets, again with accompanying teacher's notes.

The Rivers Resource Book includes an extensive reference glossary, together with over 70 photocopiable diagrams, covering the entire topic and again organised into eight distinct units. A section on Other Resources for Teaching Rivers covers using the Internet (with specific Internet Activity Sheets) and using photographs and videos. There are also sections covering undertaking a Local Project (with photocopiable project sheets) and Cross-Curricular Activities.

An essential resource for geography teachers, and the perfect accompaniment to Ransom's Rivers CD-ROM.
