Who doesn't love animal facts? Invite your Grade 3–8 students to watch wildlife videos from the award-winning BBC series Planet Earth, in which Sir David Attenborough takes them up close and personal with incredible animals across awe-inspiring landscapes. Then, they can see how much they learned with one of these are 16 engaging quizzes (we're big fans of our guess the image question type!). The videos are linked under each quiz page. Assign one or assign them all!
Teaching ecosystems helps students see how every living thing is connected. That's why we've created our Ecosystems Collection. We cover six ecosystems (grasslands, desert, coral reef, tropical rainforest, mountain, and polar). After watching videos on each ecosystem, challenge your students to become ecosystem experts by creating their own colorful reports filled with fascinating facts. (They’ll need to dig deeper with extra research, too!) There's a brochure template for each of the six ecosystems. Inside, students will uncover and share:
- Location of the ecosystem on a world map
- Adjectives that describe the ecosystem
- Three animals that live in the ecosystem
- Three plants that grow in the ecosystem
- The climate of the ecosystem
- What makes the ecosystem important
- Their favorite fun facts
Your students will summarize the most important details in their own words while keeping it clear and easy to understand. As they choose what to include, they’ll sharpen their ability to evaluate and combine information from different sources. Best of all, they’ll show off their creativity and communication skills by designing a brochure that’s as fun to read as it is informative!

As students explore each dinosaur and dig site combo, they can record their findings in this Paleontologist Field Journal. For each site, students will fill in:
- Dig Site Observations: Answer questions about the Visit the Dig video.
- Fact File: Using information from the Meet the Dinosaur video and your own research, fill in all the boxes.
- Coloring page: Color the detailed scientific drawing of the dinosaur.
It's all part of our Walking With Dinosaurs Virtual Field Trip!
You'll need to print this double-sided. Select the option to flip on the long edge. To assemble the journals, students will stack the double-sided pages together, fold in half, and staple along the short edge.
Come along on a prehistoric adventure! When you share this Interactive Map with your students, they'll get kid-friendly directions for how to explore. They can click around the six different dig sites (each featuring one incredible dinosaur), where they'll watch a pair of videos and take a quiz. Make sure you've also printed copies of the Paleontologist Field Journal for them to record their findings. It's all part of our Walking With Dinosaurs Virtual Field Trip!
To start, click on the link below. You'll be invited to make a copy of the Google Slides. You can save it to your Google Classroom and then share it with students so they can explore on their own. They'll want to be in Slideshow mode for this!
