Note for Teachers This environmental project can be based around an environment near your school that is familiar to your students. It is a good idea to get the students to take photos of the local flora and fauna which can be used to draw from in addition to drawing in the field. Bringing specimen back to the class room risks damaging the environment that the students are being taught to value and protect. When the students identify the specimen they have photographed they will be learning more than the names of the subjects. You will need good field guide books that are local. The WA Museum have published many and so have Department of Fisheries and Department of Environment and Conservation in association with CSIRO. Many municipalities and local Naturalist clubs will have species lists that they will be pleased to make available. The Water Authority have compiled a teacher resource packages that will extend the learning possibilities for this type of project. Consider becoming a Waterwise School. Metro NRM Coast Care officers are a great resource for coastal projects. The Gould League is another organization that will offer helpful local knowledge and a great outing to the Herdsman Lake Centre. Swan River Authority Ribbons of Blue have an educational outreach, check their website and give them a call. Useful local field guide books for Perth Metropolitan area. If you know of any others please let me know.
