I have used my favourite Geography-themed inspirational quotes to design these cute minfullness colouring bookmarks as a simple, calming worksheets for KS2 Primary, KS3 secondary students. Also cab be used as a home schooling programme. Great to support a literacy in Geography initiative, or simply a relaxing end to a busy lesson or term. I designed these on Canva, and they come as a high quality PDF download. please support me in my creation of FREE resources, by purchasing and reading my ebook for teachers ’ Time Smart Teaching’ available exclusively on Amazon:

Written for year 7, this lesson has a literacy focus and introduces students to some of the physical geography and landscape characteristics of the Tundra Biome and it’s cold environment. Students analyse the descriptive vocabulary and adjectives used to describe Svalbard, then build a bank of keywords as a class to use independently in their travel writing. The aim of the lesson is to complete an extended piece of writing to take the reader on an imaginary journey through the tundra around the archipelago of Svalbard ( travel journalism skills). There is a writing frame worksheet to support students write about the physical and human geography using the 5 senses. This differentiated lesson could easily be adapted for year 8 or 9 and gets student familiar with cold environments at GCSE geography.

This excel spreadsheet system allows customization of marking or assessment feedback onto a word document, which can be printed out onto stickers and placed onto student books. The examples given can be used and customized for any year group. The focus is on key vocab and the English to Spanish translation. This resource and framework can be adapted to other languages or subjects.
