Description
Students will learn about animals, plants, the weather, environmental concerns, and famous explorers of Antarctica in this slideshow. You can use this slideshow at the beginning of a unit on Antarctica. You can also print it out and use it as a book for student research. This slideshow also has 4 questions at the end of the slideshow to review what students have learned.
This download comes as a PDF file and is NOT editable as a PDF. However, you can open this slideshow in the TPT EASEL program and add or delete pages and add your own content. I have made a free EASEL activity for your students to use where they can answer questions, circle or highlight things, and write about what they have learned. That is included with this download.
