The first lesson in my contrasting lesson set. I have focused on Scarborough as a contrast to Sheffield. The idea behind the lesson is to NOT tell the pupils where the contrasting place is. Set the 'sources' up around the room and give each pupil worksheet (all found as slides in the powerpoint). They are to try and work out where the place is whilst evaluating the sources. There is then a card sort activity (which can be downloaded for free form my shop) for Scarborough's history.

This is a 14 page workbook to compliment the second place lesson in the AQA Changing Places unit. The booklet is focused on perceptions of place with exogenous and endogenous factors dominating the activities. All activities are student lead with extension tasks for HA learners. Massey's 'Kilburn' (as recommended by Redfern's A-Level textbook as key text) features along with all the relevant exam questions and mark schemes from the AS and A2 specimen papers. Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

A lesson from my scheme of work for the new Geography ALevel: Changing Places. This lesson focuses on perceptions of place and the factors which influence this (endogenous and exogenous factors). The lesson focuses on key definitions of endo/exo factors along with the distinct differentiation between the two. Practical examples are then given to concrete this difference with tasks focusing on our local area (Sheffield-but can be easily adapted to your local area) and exam practice from the AQA specimen papers.

A work booklet to compliment the introductory lessons to the new AQA A-Level Changing Places unit. This is a 12 page booklet full of activities which encourage students to change their mindset from GCSE concepts of place to A-Level (and beyond) concepts and theories of place. Pupils are required to consider definitions of place, their own sense of place through their favourite places, media and experienced places along with insider and outsider perspectives on place. As any geographer will know, this is a challenging unit, but this booklet proved very successful with my year 12 class in laying the foundations for the unit. See my shop for lesson 2 (powerpoint and workbook included!)

Lesson 4- Place Attachment and Identity with significant focus on Tuan's place attachment theory. The focus then turns to place making through rebranding, regeneration and re-imaging. Hull City of Culture is used as a case study (as referenced in the AS Changing Places Exam)

This is a fully resourced, completely fresh, and contemporary take on Globalisation for KS3. Based on Darshini David’s ‘Almighty Dollar’ this is an engaging and challengin scheme of work which is fully resourced with powerpoints, worksheets, and activities!!

An introductory lesson in a key stage 3 'coasts&' scheme of work.
