Continue your LKS2 unit on mountains with this PowerPoint presentation on what lives in the mountains.

After learning key vocabulary, children will consider whether life could be supported at a mountain's peak then learn about what conditions are like as altitude increases, and how this impacts on wildlife. They will learn about examples of flora and fauna linked to UK mountains, and how they have adapted to suit these conditions, then find out about some unusual plants that grow on Ben Nevis as a case study. For their tasks, they will design an animal that could live in mountains and then research examples of flora or fauna that live in mountains beyond the UK, before finishing with engaging assessment questions so you can gauge what has been learnt throughout this exciting geography lesson.
