An introduction to China, Locating China

(0)
This 1 hour KS3 lesson teaches pupils to locate China at a range of scales. The worksheet, requiring access to an atlas, requires learners to identify key Geographical elements such as the hemispheres equator and specific countries. These are then used to describe Chinas location. Differentiated writing frames are included to support weaker students, as well as model answers to exemplify good practice. Check out some of my other products relating to China:- What physical and human Geography exists across China? How is the population distributed across China? What is rural to urban migration and why does it occur? What are the problems of overpopulation? How developed is China? Was China’s one child policy an example of successful population control?

The Sahara, Hostile environments, Investigating Africa's physical landscapes

(0)
This 1 hour KS3 resource investigates the Sahara desert as a hostile environment. Pupils start by identifying patterns in the distribution of hot deserts, before considering their conditions. Students develop Geographical skills, using climate data to produce climate graphs. The atmospheric circulation model is used to help pupils understand why desert environments have such hot dry weather. A diamond 9 exercise is used to help pupils evaluate the challenges faced in desert environments. **Bundle and save!

Africa & The Development Gap Topic Bundle

9 Resources
This 12 week scheme of work is carefully sequenced to support learners in their understanding of the development gap. The unit starts by investigating the distribution of global wealth, highlighting our unequal and unfair world. Pupils then learn how development is measured through various indicators and evaluate their effectiveness. Learners consider the causes of global inequality and classify the contributing factors. Africa is used as a case study for the unit. Students learn to describe and explain Africa’s diverse landscape and develop Geographical skills using climate graphs. The poor standards of living experienced areas of rural Ghana, as well urban shanty towns are investigated. Pupils consider how these areas influence life chances. To concluded the unit, fair trade is explored as a strategy to reduce the development gap. Only want a particular lesson? No problem! What is development? How can we measure development?
