Task 1. Find out what ‘The Race to the South Pole’ was by watching the short clip on the Royal Museums Greenwich website. Google search Royal Museums Greenwich and then, in their search function in the top right corner, type Race to the South Pole.

Select this and then scroll down slightly to find the clip under the subheading, What was the race to the South Pole?
Task 2. Now read more about the race, making notes in your Home Learning Book as you read, using pages 6-8 The Race to the South Pole of the PDF Antarctic Adventures here: http://www.satspapers.org/SATs%20papers/2006
