Underground Discovery Mat & Creature Cards

Explore the wild and mysterious underground world of Soils with this educational discovery mat and creature cards, designed to create engaging, interactive learning experiences for children aged 5 to 12. 

• The game mat and cards are designed to be easily handled by children and are robust. The game mat is made from neoprene, which makes it resilient to wear, tear and spills from food or drink. 

• The underground discovery mat and creature cards will teach students the importance of the relationships between organisms in the soil and how these organisms create a food web of prey, predators, feeding, resource sharing and symbiotic relationships. 

• The Underground Discovery Mat is a standalone educational game resource but can be used in conjunction with the partner resources: The Soil Book and The Soil Education Kit, which feature all of the Soil organisms found on the discovery mat. These resources expand upon the organisms in great detail and provide clear scientific information to extend student learning.
  

• Includes multiple games and lesson outlines that utilise the discovery mat and cards and are aligned to student learning outcomes from the Australian Curriculum V.9.0 for Foundations through to year 6
