Please read copyright doc and refer to lesson plan and student handbook in mapwork unit resource. This is a difficult lesson for many students. Students fill in their answers in their booklets and I usually go around the class to check that every student has correct answers to the 4 figure references before going onto 6 figure. If there are students who find this difficult then I also get other students to support until the whole class is confident. I also get students up to the front to demonstrate how they get the answers as this helps less confident students.

This lesson contains powerpoints and powerpoints which can be made into cards for use with the powerpoint. The student booklet available in the unit overview has a page where students can enter their answers. There are links for homework to consolidate learning.

This unit of work was delivered to Year 6 students in a primary school during one whole day of Geography in French. It was designed as a transition unit to show students what learning Geography in French would be like when they started secondary school. Students really loved it and said that they had learnt more French in one day than they had learnt all year during their primary French lessons. The materials are also suitable for Year 7 students . Please read the copyright master document before use . particularly the section on the hydrological cycle . The lesson starts with a video clip with a card sort, then students study the hydrological cycle using a powerpoint and a further card sort. They then are introduced to more complex hydrological terms and build a model of the cycle. I used pet food boxes , but show boxes are also good to make models in. Then the students look at the differences between urban and rural areas and how that impacts the hydrological cycle ie they are applying their knowledge to a different situation and there is a support sheet using the near future which predicts what happens in each location. Finally they choose to be a simpson’s character who explains the cycle to an audience. There is a writing/speaking frame which will support their explanations. A challenging unit but very accessible for Year 6 students.

This assessment introduces students to arguments for and against the use of cars. Students then produce a powerpoint and present it to the rest of the class. this enables use of many French skills . Students are encouraged to peer assess the powerpoints and there are exemplars of student work
