In these resources from ARKive, key stage two children look at the variety of living things and the idea of adaptation. The materials contain rich images along with teacher guidance and children's activity sheets.

The resources look at a variety of topics and these include:

  • designing a minibeast
  • endangered species
  • food chains
  • plants and the variety of living things in a rainforest
  • evolution

Please note that the ARKive.org website is no longer available. However, in March 2024, to continue the legacy of ARKive, Wildscreen launched Wildscreen ARK, an online nature education hub for young people, built to inspire curiosity about the natural world and empower them to protect it.
