This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 1 HOUR resource pack includes two presentations that support pupils learning of both hard and soft engineering. The methods of groynes, sea walls, rock armour and offshore breakers are the focus for hard, while the soft techniques include beach nourishment, managed retreat and dune creation. Practice exam questions and mark schemes are included to be used as a homework task.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 1-2 HOUR resource investigates the features produced from coastal deposition. The lesson focuses on beaches, spits and tombolos. A copy and complete exercise is used to link wave energy to the deposition of beaches. Interactive slides are then used to show the link between longshore drift and spit formation. Two video links are provided to assist with this concept. A coasts game is included at the end as a plenary exercise.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 1-2 HOUR resource investigates the erosion features of hard coastlines. The lesson focuses on headland and bays, stacks and wave for platforms, as well factors effecting erosion rates. Interactive slides are used to holistically teach these aspects and handwriting frames are provided for less able students. Erosion processes are recapped throughout a game activity at the start of the lesson.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. In this short lesson, pupils look at prompt images and try to think of reasons why the sediment has been deposited. A simple experiment is then used to highlight how energy influences deposition.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 1 HOUR resource teaches pupils the processes of coastal transportation. The lesson investigates how sediment is transported according to size by, traction, saltation, suspension and solution. Longshore drift is also overviewed in a video and interactive slide from which the students can make well annotated diagrams.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. The lesson teaches pupils how to describe a mass movement event. The students investigate why the Holbeck Hotel fell into the sea through a flow diagram exercise. A mix and match activity is used to classify the types of mass movement events on both hard and soft coastlines. Several practice exam questions and their respective mark-schemes are attached for homework activities.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 1 HOUR resource looks at the difference between constructive and destructive waves and investigate how they shape the coastline. The processes of weathering are over-viewed, as well as how the waves erode the coast through abrasion, solution attrition and hydraulic action.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This TWO HOUR resource investigates the social, economic and environmental impacts of global warming. There are both global and UK examples included. Images are used as stimulus to deliver pupil led learning. A card sort task, which focuses on the impacts of global warming in the UK is included as well as categorising activity. A complementary video and two practice exam questions are additionally included.
In this lesson pupils are required to write a newspaper report covering Disney’s use of sweatshops in China. A documentary is included for video notes, as well as an exemplar model answer and newspaper template. A marking grid is also attached to ease marking load and for student feedback.
This 7 WEEK full scheme of work provides all the teaching and learning materials needed, to deliver the AQA tectonic hazards specification for exams from 2018 onwards. This high quality package starts with an insight into natural hazards and hazard risk. The scheme then investigate the structure of the Earth and plate tectonics, to provide the required background knowledge. The location of both earthquakes and volcanoes in relation to plate boundaries is covered; as well as the physical processes taking place at constructive, conservative, destructive and collision boundaries. Case studies of earthquakes in two counties of contrasting levels of development is included, to show both primary and secondary effects, as well as short and long term responses. Pupils are later taught why people continue to live near these hazards despite the risks, and consider how monitoring, prediction and protection can mitigate their effects.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 1-2 HOUR lesson teaches pupils the skills needed to compare earthquakes in countries of differing economic development. The lesson looks at the earthquakes causes, as well as their contrasting effects and response. The resource includes information sheets on the two case studies (Haiti and Kobe), as well as a comparison table. An A3 information collection sheet is used to consolidate the case study information. This can also be used alongside documentaries on the two events.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 4 HOUR resource includes two lessons; a case study of an earthquake in a LIC (Haiti), as well as one in a HIC (Christchurch). The lessons use internet based research to teach the case studies through pupil led learning. A worksheet to direct research is included as well as scene setting PowerPoints and video clips.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 2 hour lesson investigates what an earthquake is, as well as how they are measured and recorded. A map task used for pupils to reflect on where earthquakes occur. A flow diagram task is included on the causes of earthquakes as well as interactive slides of how seismometers work. A student led role play task is used to teach the Richter scale and card sort task for the Mercalli scale. Additional homework task included.
This end of unit exam tests students ability to: use compass directions, interpret map symbols and height, use four and six figure grid references, record latitude and longitude values and measure distances using a scale bar.
