Powerpoints to go with the the project on Dangerous World. Resource consists of a range of powerpoints and resources to assist with the delivery of a project on natural hazards. Project resources can be found here https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/dangerous-world-natural-hazards-project-11278775 Lesson 1 - takes a look at tectonic plate movements with a variety of activities to choose from to demonstrate. Set 1 I do the oreo activity but lower sets I do the tectonic kung fu. After each project lesson students complete an exit ticket each to demonstrate what they've learnt. I mark these throughout the project to check understanding and misconceptions.

Pupils are given the sheet and as part of the plenary each lesson they simply write the date, what they learnt and assess how well they understood what was being taught. I'd recommend that pupils keep it in a plastic wallet in their books. Pupil and teacher to refer to the sheet regularly to assess progress, determine areas for extra support and to aid revision. Can be used daily, weekly or every few lessons.

Need to Know Learning Matrix Topic - Population Growth and Megacities Linked to AQA GCSE Geography I use these to assess student understanding and progress through the term and to provide quality feedback without the need for excessive comment writing. I simply put the matrix in the front of the students book, every time I mark their books I highlight the relevant criteria in one colour (usually yellow) and criteria I would like them to attempt in DIRT in another (usually pink). Once the criteria to attempt is achieved I simply tick it off on the matrix. In their books I will write WWW and list the codes for the criteria achieved. I will then draw steps to indicate how to level up and write the corresponding codes of criteria I want them to attempt. The Need to Know questions are based on the lessons & learning objectives over the term, which are also used to create the coded success criteria. I find this technique reduces the time I spend marking books however allows me to provide quality feedback and to clearly see progress over the term. It's great for outline the SoW and encouraging independent learning. Hope it's of use.
