Pine Marten School Resources
Missing for over 100 years, Pine Martens Bounce Back: The Two Moors Pine Marten project has brought pine martens back to our woodlands here in the south west. To help communities know more about these animals, the role they play in our woodlands and why nature needs healthy woodlands, we have created four key stage curriculum linked resource packs, which are available to download for FREE! These packs have been designed to be used by teachers as part of curriculum delivery and are themed around woodland habitat and pine martens. The activities can be used as one off lessons, part of a longer topic or they could be used as part of Science Week.
