This is part of a fully resourced scheme of work for the Eduqas GCSE (9-1) Geography specification, although it is easily adaptable for other specifications. Each lesson has all materials provided (with YouTube links) and is ready to teach out-of-the-box. This lessons examines the impacts of trade (using chocolate as an example). inequalities in the states of production and issues of protectionism.

This lesson introduces the a wide range of graph types to support the Eduqas B Geograph 9-1 specification, although it is directly transferable to all specifications. It introduces the graph types and asks students to select appropriate types based upon certain criteria. The lesson covers: Axis Bar, line and pie charts Pictographs Histographs Divided bar charts Scatter graph Population pyramid Flow line graph Located bar chart Kite diagrams Star or radial diagrams

An initial Geography lesson to introduce Y7 to Geography, developing an understanding of human, physical and environmental Geography and looking at the various aspects of Geography that they will study over the KS3 National Curriculum. Ideally you would have the cover of the Hodder Progress in KS3 Geography so they could study the photo on the front more thoroughly but it is the cover photo of this lesson so you do have a copy in case you have not got copies of those books to hand. The lesson is from a Y7 introduction to Geography skill-based unit. It is fully resourced with a range of engaging activities to introduce pupils to the subject and its core skills.

The lesson uses images, maps and climate graphs to examine the different biomes in the Middle East and examines some of the adaptation of flora and fauna. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

This lesson examines ethincity and the development of faiths in the region, including the Sunni/Shia divide and the impacts this has today. A compound bar chart activity is used to examine faith groups in each country in the region. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

A lesson examining oil dependency and uses a range of types of map, including flow-line (desire) maps. The lesson introduced Dubai and examined how Dubai has diversified its economy. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

This lesson introduces the scale and types of migration to Dubai and pupils complete a flow-line (desire line) map activity. The Kafala system of migration to Dubai is also discussed. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

A lesson examining a range of impacts of climate change on the region, possible consequences and “so what” reasoning to examine the scale and wider impacts. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

Prepared for the Eduqas GCSE Geography B 9-1 specification (and applicable to all other boards), with all resources provided and ready to teach straight away. My lessons are interactive and provide a variety of teaching and learning activities. This lesson is part of the ‘HIC Global Cities: Sydney’ scheme of work (available as a bundle) of fifteen lessons about Sydney. This lesson introduces the concept of earnings/house price ratio. Pupils examine how economic prosperity has acted as a pull factor to international migrants, increasing Sydney’s population and increasing house prices. Students develop a chain of reasoning to explain this (and develop extended writing exam skills as a result). They then examine a range of attitudes held by different stakeholders to the impacts of the housing crisis in Sydney

A fully-resourced GCSE Geography lesson exploring the push and pull factors leading to the growth of Mumbai. Pupils complete a classification activity to identify push, pull, obstructions and problems for Mumbai factors. There is an extension/homework activity where students create a scatter graph to test a hypothesis about rural poverty driving migration to Mumbai. Part of a wider unit but a standalone lesson.

This is a fun starter or plenary activity based upon the Blockbusters TV show. Two teams (usually boys vs girls) complete to win hexagons by answering questions. The winning team makes a complete chain of hexagons across the board. This is a very dynamic version of this classic activity and can be edited to change all questions. The questions animate in with the intro theme and this has proven to encourage pupils to work on recall before they have even answered the questions. This is ideal for an observed lesson.

A lesson designed for our Y9 Africa KS3 unit. This lesson introduces the location of Africa, alongside reinforcing the location of other major global physical features and lines of latitude, and then examines the location of the major physical features and geography of Africa. The lesson ends with an modelled description of this.

The fifth lesson in the Y9 Africa unit, this lesson leads pupils to understand how rainfall anomalies in the mid 20th century led to increased agricultural activity and population in the Sahel and the subsequent challenges this - and lower rainfall patterns - have caused that threaten the biome in the area (and the implications for humans)

The fourth lesson in the Y9 Africa unit, this lesson introduces pupils to the savanna biome and its climate and adaptations. It focussing on the Sahel region of Africa and how it was traditionally used by humans (nomadic farming) and why this was sustainable.

The third lesson in the Y9 Africa unit, this lesson introduces pupils to a range of solutions to desertification (magic stones, drip irrigation, rainwater harvesting, etc) and asks pupils to learn about and then present this information to the class.

A lesson which introduces the biomes of Russia, including steppe, tundra, taiga and temperate forest. Pupils examine each biome and look at adaptations. Progress in KS3 textbook (Hodder) required for the last part of the lesson

This lesson focuses on glaciers as a system and their inputs, outputs and processes. Pupils thus examine the processes involved, such as ablation, accumultation, meltwater, erosion, transportation, etc. Pupils then look at the landforms created by glaciers - Arete, corrie, pyramidal peak, etc.
