Lesson idea. A study of the factors affecting the rabbit population of the North and South Downs in England.

Teaching approach. Learning objectives are met using the following approaches:

  • brainstorm (whole class(ta))
  • looking at graphs (small group work(ta))
  • case study (whole class teaching and discussion(ta))
  • concept mapping (whole class activity) (edit)
