Lesson Plan
Exploring Antarctica as ScientistsIn this lesson, your students will step into the shoes of Antarctic scientists! They'll dive into the fascinating world of Antarctic research stations and unique wildlife with video clips from BBC’s Seven Worlds, One Planet and Frozen Planet. After exploring the videos and researching more about this frozen continent, your students will write a creative journal entry from the perspective of a research scientist sharing their experiences in Antarctica. You’ll wrap up the lesson with a meaningful class discussion about why studying Antarctica matters and how the discoveries made there could shape our world.
Lesson Plan
Exploring Antarctica: Let's Be Research ScientistsTake your students on a research journey to Antarctica! In this lesson, students will become Antarctic scientists as they explore the continent’s unique wildlife using video clips from BBC’s Seven Worlds, One Planet and Frozen Planet. Students will watch the videos, then research an Antarctic animal of their choice. They will explore what is known about the animal, identify gaps in scientific knowledge, and suggest future research areas. Finally, students will present their findings in a class display to inspire others to learn more about this amazing environment!
Lesson Plan
Journey to Antarctica: A Penguin StudyIn this activity, students will step into the boots of Antarctic research scientists as they uncover the secrets of penguin life! They’ll start by sharing what they already know about Antarctica before "traveling" there through a BBC Frozen Planet video, which will let them experience the continent up close. Then, each student will select a penguin species to research and they will use a BBC video from Seven Worlds, One Planet or Frozen Planet to gather their observations. Students will synthesize their notes as they create a research journal page, and they will then wrap up by discussing what new questions they’re curious to investigate next!

Titan's Surface: Exploring the Frozen Surface of Saturn’s MoonIn Titan's Surface: Exploring the Frozen Surface of Saturn’s Moon, Professor Brian Cox describes how in 2004, the Huygens probe landed on Saturn’s moon Titan and revealed a surprisingly Earth-like surface. The probe observed flat, sandy ground with smooth, rounded stones — evidence that there was once flowing water on Titan's surface. This discovery has provided crucial insights into Titan’s geological history. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Wonders of the Solar System, a spellbinding documentary series that explores the most extreme locations on Earth to explain how the laws of physics carved natural wonders across the Solar System.
