Some great material for researching the Giant's Causeway as part of a DME or questions based exercise.

A short introduction to get secondary pupils to think about where their food comes from and how to use food more sustainably. This lesson can be used with the Food Inc. CDRom if you have it. If you DON'T have it, you might be able to get a free copy from info@dogwoof.com Add your own animations to text etc if you wish.

To go with this tutorial I have added one of the resources: a comparison summary or short essay task with key ideas about the European Heatwave 2003 and Myanmar cyclone Nargis 2008. Can be altered accordingly for different weather case studies.

These outlines are designed to be used with the tutorial/powerpoint resource I uploaded called 'sustainable food lesson'. The lunchtime outline is used for the kids to draw what they will/did eat at lunch and start discussing where their food came from. The food images are used for them to write a pledge about how they/their parents can be more sustainable with food.

Using the internet, this is a fun activity for homework or a spare lesson to test general knowledge Geography that the students may face questions about outside of school.

To be used when showing The Day After Tomorrow in class. I usually get mine to use their answers to build a short essay under the title: 'If the planet is warming, what are the climatic possibilities for the future of the Northern hemisphere?'
