A presentation to use with students in an ICT - packed lesson. Google Earth is a great tool for exploring the planet, and this is a useful lesson in demonstrating how to use some of Google Earth’s functionality to determine the epicentre of an earthquake. Contains slides, and a video demonstration embedded within the Powerpoint. It is a large file, so beware.

Here is a quiz of 20 questions based on the Solar System Also supplied is page 2 - marking guide. Print off (only one copy) of this page and slide under the answer sheet and tick off correct answers, or I’ve seen some cut out holes and use it as a guide sheet over each paper - simply to allow for quick and easy marking.

To be bundled with worksheet on soil analysis. Several slides are directly from the worksheet, but there are some other useful pits and pieces to help run the lesson.

Simple worksheet for lesson activity for teacher - led drawing of tectonic processes

8 page prac workbook for students to complete for soil analysis. This activity should take 2-3 lessons, and involves sampling soil from within or around the school, and analysing for pH, moisture, texture, organics, and salinity. Can be used before OR after you cover soil formation and type. Please leave feedback!

This can be used for 12-17 year olds in Earth Sciences classes when discussing earthquakes. Simple to follow presentation including brief clip from IRIS and screenshot clip using Google Earth including simple activity for students to follow. Some charting skills required and developed. Always use as PART of a well planed lesson. Please provide feedback.

This contains a video, presentation and an activity for students to undertake. The aim of the lesson is to understand how human activity is a very recent phenomenon on Earth. Possibly a good starter to an environmental unit, or as this was designed, as an introduction to Earth Science. Please leave feedback, and as always, use as part of a properly planned lesson!

Used as a guide only in conjunction with a properly planned lesson, this may be a useful tool for organising your thoughts when discussing geological concepts. Images credited where known. prostheticknowledge.tumblr.com

This is a tool to be used in a secondary school (7-12) to start a discussion about the age of the earth. It can be accompanied by a presentation that I will bundle. There are no copyright images on this resource.
