I am a secondary school Head of department and I love to teach engaging, vibrant and interesting lessons. I try to inspire students with what greets them when they come into my classroom and try to move away from the chalk and talk teacher at the front lessons and make learning interactive and fun!

Question and answer topic booklets is designed to send home to parents so that they can revise with their child. There are a series of questions and answers that the parent can traffic light to assist and monitor revision. This has been a great tool for the 'revising in my bedroom on facebook' generation when a parent wants to help.
This can also be used to help students check their own learning and then use the questions as mini-knowledge checks. There is also a physical geography booklet.
Case Study revision sheets for Rivers, tourism and tectonics; Students complete the case studies with probing questions. The pack includes questioning sheets and resource interpretation. There is also an accompanying case study notes booklet attached so that these can be used for homework or home revision too.
Parent revision evening; This power point has been used at parents evenings and parent revision evenings to prepare parents and students for the Geography AQA examinations, what the paper looks like, where additional information can be found and timelines.
Memory training; Students are increasingly finding it difficult in a digital age to retain information. Students rarely know their own mobile numbers as the brain no longer needs to retain this information in a digital era where your memory is in your smartphone. For exams however students cannot rely on their smart phones and need to be using their memories.
This is a good session to get students to think about their revision and how they can revise. The session is interactive and there are lots of activities to try. It works best to use your own subject however the information in this one is generic so students can collectively try the techniques.
I use it a lot for Geography case studies for key facts and have had good success. Students sometimes want to revise but struggle to know how they can make their revision more accessible.
