Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify and describe common British fish that might live in a pond and templates to describe and record changes that can happen to water during cold temperatures and create a picture of fish that lives in a pond using a range of different art materials.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how different types of fish can survive cold weather and temperatures during the winter.

This lesson is part of a curriculum topic scheme of work to get the children to explore how animals adapt to the changes to the natural world in the winter including animals that live in Britain and other habitats such as the arctic. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
