KS3 Geography Lockdown Global Development Project - home schooling

This resource is designed to last for 12 lessons and be independently completed during lock down. It includes the following topics: development indicators and index, employment structure, trade, fair trade, aid, Charity:water case study. It is a single PowerPoint with instructions for the students to follow on each slide. The idea is that over the 12 lessons the PowerPoint will build up into a project that can then be submitted for teacher assessment. The lessons have differentiated tasks to stretch the more able. Each lesson/topic area can be graded using the mark scheme and AtL (attitude to learning) score, which can then be recorded in the student’s diary (these are all located on slides in the PowerPoint). Many of the resources are included at the end of the slide show, although a number of hyperlinks to websites and videos are also included. I designed this lesson for Year 9 but it could be used across KS3.

I have also included a version for students who do not have access to the internet.

I have tried to make this:

• Easy for the students to download - only one PowerPoint file.
• Easy for the students to follow - clear instructions on each slide
• Accessible - differentiated
• Challenging - differentiated
• Good Geography closely linked to what they would have been studying at school.
• Assessed - mark scheme for self and teacher assessment
• Well resourced - a range of media for research included.
