Serves both as a GCSE Geography case study and decision making practice. Just a re-jigged resource that I created for the death-throes of the 2012 OCR-B syllabus, but still relevant for the new 9-1 GCSEs. Why FREE? While the resource is my own creation, it contains elements from other sources (which are cited/referenced where possible) and this resource is considered ‘legacy’ and will not be updated. But I work very hard on making resources that are effective and engaging, so please leave me some kind feedback and visiting my ‘Geogramblings’ website where more up-to-date stuff is available!

This scheme of work reflects content changes to the KS3 Geography syllabus. The Geography Student Leaders and members of the Geoggers extra-curricular club were heavily consulted and part of this unit has been written up in partnership with them (thank you!). The scheme of work takes a location-based approach covering many different aspects of physical and human geography, but also introduces relatively ‘new’ concepts such as conflict/war and international interdependence (e.g. migrant labour). This scheme also is designed to be the first real occasion where students rigorously practices their extended writing (PEE) and introduces themed-based GIS. This scheme of work is assessed by a written report which explicitly asks students to recall the learning in class. As a whole unit, this scheme of work is expected to take around 12-14 hours. You will need to download the “Sakkal Majalla” font for the text to display properly (easily found online for free). Not all resources could be uploaded (e.g. the Human Planet and Planet Earth videos, the raw files for the card game and the Lesson 8 Aegis GIS file (Aegis3 or Aegis3 Viewer needed) - but I can supply the card game files and GIS file on request. I would be very grateful if you could review our work, in order to help others judge whether the resource(s) are useful, and how they could be improve them. Thanks! Why FREE?

One-page revision sheets. One side information and the other side tasks to practice recall. A range of topics. I make these up as and when they are needed by our students. Hopefully useful! Why FREE?

I would like to share with you all our department’s scheme of work on glaciers. It was co-written with student leaders and hopefully you will find some or all of it useful! This scheme also refers to relevant video clips from a field trip to the USA (http://youtu.be/qC5ZvFeFThU and http://youtu.be/kfrUB8mdYAI) Feel free to download all the resources or [glacier] cherry-pick. ;) I would be very grateful if you could review my work, in order to help others judge whether the resource(s) are useful, and I how I could improve them.
