Landscapes of Vietnam: KS3 Scheme of Work

This is a collection of presentations and worksheets that we use to deliver one of our Year Seven units, The Landscapes of Vietnam. I wrote it with the help of our Vietnamese lodger about two or three years ago and it is an interesting alternative to learning about the other countries in Asia that are covered in all the usual textbooks, i.e. China, India etc. It covers physical geography, the monsoon, life on the Mekong delta, issues relating to mangrove forests along the coasts, rice farming and tropical storms. Along with the presentations are some basic resources such as outline maps of South East Asia and Vietnam.
