Lesson Aim:
To understand the main characteristics of the tropical rainforest biome.
Lesson Objectives:
1. To establish why tropical rainforests are important.
2. To produce an annotated poster outlining the characteristics of the tropical rainforest biome.
3. To summarise the main characteristics of the tropical rainforest.
Resources included:
PowerPoint presentation including hyperlinks to video clips
Lesson plan
Lower ability helpsheet- TRF image sheet for poster activity
G&T additional research annotations to be included for poster activity (laminated cards, to be collected back in)
Lesson 4 of 10 from my new scheme of work on Biogeography/ Ecosystems.
Also works as a stand alone lesson on the characteristics of tropical rainforests.
Fully differentiated with resources and additional research tasks for lower and higher ability pupils.
This lesson is from a scheme of work that I have written for my Year 8 groups, but it could be easily adapted for Year 7 or 9.
This lesson requires pupils to make use of the Wider World textbook in addition to the green Heinemann 'Understanding GCSE Geography for AQA Specification A' (Bowen and Palmister, 2009) text book.
Three progress checks have been incorporated into this lesson.
