Studying shells

Here is another activity I have included in our nature corner. I had quite a large collection of shells my kids and I had picked up from the sea shores over the past few weeks. I found some cards on the web (I am sorry but I can't remember where, apologies!) and I thought the kids could use them to do a little classification game. Basically, the children have to match the shells to the cards I have provided. I had to create my own to match our species here in the South East of Ireland.
