IGCSE Geography

IGCSE Geography - Full Course

This is a catalogue of two full years of IGCSE lessons, with over a hundred lessons provided. The lessons have been designed in detail and are both differentiated and engaging, allowing you to move pupils through content efficiently.

These lessons have been built with a research base approach to teaching and therefore have dual coding, graphic organisers, retrieval practice and AFL opportunities at their heart, which have been streamlined over the years.

A colour scheme also runs throughout to ease both your delivery and students’ comprehension and please see below for an outline of the lesson included in each individual SoW.

Please note the final two units on Water and Energy are designed as independent research booklets, to allow for more focused teacher time on the more difficult content within this course. Please consider this before purchasing.

Please see the extensive resources on my Tes Shop to see the style and quality of my resources, and if you have any questions please do feel free to get in contact:
