Highlight The Impact Template V2

A template for a worksheet I use with GCSE and A-Level students to highlight the regional impacts of climate change and rate their severity. It is fully editable so can be adapted when new statistics come to light! Hope this proves useful. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer
Managing Floods - Hard Engineering

Managing Floods - Hard Engineering

(0)
AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1C: In this lesson we look at hard engineering methods of flood management. We start with a retrieval practice grid game based around the processes and landforms of erosion. The students then complete a cloze exercise to create a definition of what hard engineering is. We briefly introduce soft engineering, then the students have a blank diagram of a drainage basin which has undergone both hard and soft engineering strategies to reduce flooding. The students have to annotate the diagram and work out which is hard and soft engineering. The students are then given some information cards and have to record details on four methods of hard engineering:- dams and reservoirs, flood relief channels, embankments and channel straightening. The students record the advantages and disadvantages and complete a rating exercise for various factors. We finish with a 9-mark GCSE style question and there is some guidance for students who need it on how to answer it. Hope this saves you some valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer
