LESSON COVERS:
the location of the dam, how a dam works, the advantages and disadvantages of the dam and how it may impacts people and the environment.
LESSON INVOLVES:
students first generate questions for themselves about the dam which they then come back to answer later. The dam is then located by slowly zooming in on google earth (students to identify when they can see it). There is a video to make notes from on how a dam works, then a video for students to collect advantages and disadvantages (each video is hyperlinked if you click on the screen grab once in slide show mode). Students then read people profiles and plot each person on a graph to show how they are effected by the dam (differentiated). The final task is to write a letter as the president to the dam designer arguing for or against the dam's construction in the first place.
RESOURCES
There is an extra information sheet for any students wanting ore information.
Please review with any feedback :-)
