Thanks to support from the Ernest Kleinwort Charitable Trust, we have produced this set of classroom reference guides to the regions of Sussex, for use in Sussex schools. This classroom guide to the wildlife, habitats of the South Downs and how humans have impacted upon the region is a zipped folder containing a set of teaching notes and an accompanying PowerPoint presentation, filled with inspiring and informative images. Also included are some suggestions for activities linked to the Science National Curriculum. Topics covered are:
Introduction to Sussex - location, history, size, sub-regions
Geography of the South Downs - farming, landscape and habitats
Protected areas of the South Downs
Plants of the South Downs
Animals of the South Downs
Human impact on the South Downs
Suggested activities linked to the Science National Curriculum
