Want to make sand castles in Bournemouth, go fossil hunting in Dorset or have a day at the beach in Cornwall ?

These are just some of the many Foundation and KS1 modelling activities available to all schools at http://bdo.swgfl.org.uk .

After completing the activities pupils can send postcards with their results. The activities are designed to be facilitated by an adult and promote discussion. They are ideal as whole class activities on an interactive whiteboard.

The 15 activities have been produced by i-Board in collaboration with the South West Grid for Learning. More activities are planned for all around the country including the West Midlands. WMnet are working with i-Board to produce 15 activities which will highlight the best of the region especially in terms of industrial heritage.
