    In my classroom, I would use this activity across a number of lessons. Firstly, I would explore the sphere with the children and have them go on a maths hunt to search for spheres in the school and home environment.  As an art lesson, we would create the earth using papier maché spheres. They would then paint this to look like the earth. Polar regions would be explored and videos about the Arctic and Antarctica would be shown to the pupils. Using small-world animals, the pupils would place a penguin and a polar bear in their correct region on their papier maché earth. They may also place a small figure on Ireland to represent themselves.
