Play the talking game “Just a Minute” to explain the formation of physical landforms

Radio 4’s talking game “Just a Minute” has been adapted for GCSE or National 5 students. The aim is to improve their explanations of the formation of glacial/coastal/river landforms. It assumes prior knowledge of these landforms. Players talk to the class for 60 seconds to explain the formation of a landform without an error, repetition or deviation. The talk time can be shortened to suit the class. Each landscape presentation has landforms to talk about and hints how to improve explanations. After the game, learners can write their own explanations. A generic version of the game is provided.
