After the visit
6. After learners have completed the surveys discuss:
• Is the biodiversity found here similar or different to what
we found at school?
• Did you find the same number of animals in both sites?
• Which site had the greatest amount of biodiversity?
• What would help explain these differences? Link
initial plant diversity survey to animal diversity. That
is, the greater the variety of plant layers and habitat
components, the greater the variety of animals.

7. Give learners in their groups a sheet of newsprint and pen.

8. Copy an enlarged bubble map onto the newsprint with the
word BIODIVERSITY in the centre. Within each group, each
learner must write a different fact about what he/she has
learned about biodiversity. Ask learners to write what action
they would take to make school biodiversity healthier.

9. Discuss the links between knowledge, attitudes and
behaviour (actions).
