Adaptive teaching

Pupils needing extra support

Could choose two or three ideas to write about from the Presentation: Healthy oceans in their piece of writing. Can use the Activity: Why do oceans matter? (support) to help support writing their paragraph.

Pupils working at greater depth

Should distinguish between the impact actions have on the beach environment, water quality, and marine species and coral. Pupils can also consider whether their fieldwork will require them to collect qualitative or quantitative data.
