What we wear is going to be vital if we want to come back in one piece. Check out this video, edited by Lifestyle Video Productions, to find out exactly what we’ll be wearing in Antarctica and how we will be keeping warm.
We will be camping in Antarctica and our tents need to be very robust. We’ll be taking the Terra Nova Hyperspace. We need to be able to get them up fast in all kinds of weather conditions. Here we are practicing in the Lake District.
Can you guess how many items I have on my kit list?

A very good, well put together website with a mixture of writing, images and videos. There is lots of information and questions to keep you interested.I had great fun reading the website and I now know if I ever want to know anything about Antartica then this is where I’ll come! Best of luck for the expedition and I hope it all goes well! See you at school on Monday!

Hi Tom. Glad you found the homework so easy! I will need to find something harder for you!

It’s really good but it could do with a search bar to make navigation around the website easier.
September 22nd, 2007 at 4:11 pm
I really like the website as I think it is clear to read and is really interesting, and I found the homework easy as well. Great website Dr Rogers see you on tuesday.

I found the website really intresting but could not get the video to play so have been unable to finish homework.
September 23rd, 2007 at 2:11 pm
Thanks for your messages Chloe and Tim. I’m sorry you couldn’t get the video to work Tim. I will have to try and work out what went wrong there. You can see the same video from one of the other teachers sites (www.antarctic-teacher.co.uk). Perhaps the link will work better from there.

September 25th, 2007 at 5:11 pm
hi dr.rogers, i will tell you who i am at school on wednasday(tomorrow!) i really like your website and the layout is really cool ! anyway see you at school !
September 25th, 2007 at 5:15 pm
by the way, i forgot to say, i think to make the website better you should put the kit in another place too, so if someone cannot access youtube, they can find it somewhere else instead !
September 25th, 2007 at 7:18 pm
Your website was good and interesting – I now know about Lichen and the Antartica!
But I couldn’t get the video to work – so was unable to finish all of my homework. Sorry!
September 25th, 2007 at 7:33 pm
Hey guys. I’m getting a bit worried about this video now. Thanks for your feedback though! See you in school.
September 25th, 2007 at 8:27 pm
hi doctor rogers
I found the website really easy to navigate
my way around.I think you could make it easier to find your way around if you had put some navigation bars at the bottom.I wish you well on your trip to antartica!!!
September 25th, 2007 at 8:30 pm
Sorry i forgot to say i will try to use the website while you are off in antartica!

P.S I would probably guess that you had 15 pieces of clothing on your list!
October 19th, 2007 at 11:18 pm
