GCSE9-1 urban trends; suburbanisation role play

This is a series of approximately 3 lessons. The pupils are required to take on a variety of roles to debate and discuss the issue of suburbanisation between London and Slough. There is a variety of data included for students to use in their speeches and a writing frame to help them structure their argument. The other resources are for the debate. There is a record sheets where they can record what the different groups perspectives are and a question sheet to encourage them to reflect on other group's speeches and to write their own questions to further debate and discussion. Students can also prepare compromises they are willing to make in order to reach and agreement and can discuss these. There is an opinion line for pupils to record and justify their own opinion about development on the edge of the M25. I have also added a peer observation sheet for students to use to observe what students in other groups are doing throughout the role play. they can then given feedback on this at the end of the lesson, which will hopefully help them to reflect on their engagement. All resources are included in the PowerPoint or as separate documents.
