Teacher's notes: Deserts of the World It's best to have done some preparatory discussions on deserts before completing the map.There is a good Powerpoint on Primary Resources entitled 'Deserts'. This task could be further adapted by using just the final slide and getting the children to find the names of the deserts themselves by using an atlas. However, school atlases vary greatly so check carefully that the names of the deserts are reasonably accessible.
