Two lessons about frozen oceans. The lessons cover:
Terminology about frozen oceans - a matching exercise.
Reasons why the ocean freezes - an annotated diagram.
The frozen ocean food chain - a ‘create a mobile’ activity (scissors, glue and string needed).
There are also some interesting starters (one using Ice Road Truckers) and a couple of clips from Frozen Planet interspersed, with thinking questions (iPlayer log in needed).
Complete lesson on mangroves. The lesson looks at:
What are mangroves?
What is the global distribution of mangroves?
Why have mangroves been destroyed?
Why are mangroves important?
It then finishes with a decision-making exercise, where students are given information about mangrove restoration in Indonesia, and they must plan a strategy for restoring areas of mangrove.
There is a true/false plenary quiz at the very end.
The lesson will easily last for 1 hour, and could be made to last longer.
Changing Places
Population and the Environment
Global Systems and Global Governance
Year 11 into 12 summer bridging packs. Each pack contains pages of activities that introduce students to the A Level geography course.
This Fully resourced AS scheme of work, Population Change (for the new AQA GCE spec), includes Birmingham fieldwork and Aegis worksheet. Many thanks to Simon Killen of St Mary Redcliffe & Temple School for the contribution of resources for this unit. I hope to have credited any other resources used within the document itself.
