This is a decision making lesson, it may take more than one lesson as there are several elements to it as well as students understanding the issue of conflict when it comes to decision making regarding flooding.
This lesson works best if students have completed the flooding case study (part one and two on the River Severn) and they would then need to apply this knowledge in addition to the information available.
All lesson materials are included and need to be printed directly from the power point such as the character task cards and the decision making grid. The grid should form the foundations of the exam question planning and students should see the link between these.
These A3 sheets are the perfect way to start the return back to school with the recap of Theme 1.
