This is the home learning project that I have just set my year 9’s for their tourism unit. The homework consists of one compulsory homework and 8 optional ones, of which students much pick 3.

These are the two assessments that go with the 10 lessons already on here. There is a short mid-term assessment and an end of unit assessment. The mid term assessment should be completed after the Cancun lesson and the spellings for the mid-term assessment are Stagnation Destination Cultural Adventure tourist

The first lesson of the unit for year 8’s. The lesson introduces China’s human and physical features with several fun and engaging activities. I needed two lessons to complete all of the activities, but the students loved it!

A resource created for year 8's for a unit titled 'Development and resource issues'. This lesson looks at what life is like in Dharovi, a slum in India.

A lesson that has been created for year 8's for the unit 'Development and resource issues'. This lesson looks at whether money is good or bad, whether rich people are greedy and looks at what rich people can do with their money.

This is the third lesson that I have created and taught to my classes for the WJEC/ EDUQUS Geography A specification for Theme 1. The lesson looks at the 6 key Landforms that are found along rivers. The lesson includes a Presentation, resources, worksheets and a homework. Enjoy!

This is the forth lesson that I have created and taught to my classes for the WJEC/ EDUQUS Geography A specification for Theme 1. The lesson looks at the human and physical causes of river flooding. This lesson could be stretched over two lessons as for physical causes students learn to read, interpret and create two contrasting climate graphs. This lesson includes a presentation, some resources (some are in the presentation) and a homework task. Enjoy!

This is the second lesson of the short Kenya unit that I have taught to my year 7 and 8's. This lesson looks at what weather and climate are, what a climate graph is and then compares the climate of Kenya to London. Enjoy!

This is a lesson that I have created for a unit titled ‘Impossible places’. The lesson looks at Antarctica primarily looking at it’s location, climate and animals. The lesson begins with an odd one out activity followed by objectives. The students locate Antarctica and create a table outlining the difference between the Arctic and Antarctic. Students then complete an animal fact file for some of the animals found in Antarctica. (sometimes I place teddy bears around the room with each sheet at treat it like an expedition!) This activity comes with differentiated work sheets. The lesson ends by looking at a short video and a short plenary. A great lesson that students can really get their teeth into!

This is a fantastic project/ homework task that I have set my year 7’s to go with their unit. They have really enjoyed the homework, and I have also received some fantastic feedback from parents too! Enjoy!

This is a short assessment that I use that the beginning and end of the unit to assess students progress.

This is a lesson that has been created for a unit titled ‘Impossible places’ and it is by far the favourite for my students. The lesson looks at the Chernobyl disaster and when we can next live there. It starts by showing a photograph of the fairground that never got used which I mainly use for questioning. After students have written their objectives, they then work in groups to answer the question sheet using the resources. Students then watch some video clips which sum up the lesson. (If there is time I also show them the top gear clip too). The lesson ends with a plenary. A fantastic lesson which is always thoroughly enjoyed.
