Rivers Revision & Intervention Activity / Resource AQA GCSE Geography - The Unbelievable Truth

(0)
A fun and engaging revision activity for AQA GCSE Geography topic: UK River Landscapes Objective: students to identify 5 hidden truths in a passage covering the all areas of the theory of the Rivers topic (no case study detail). Can be adapted for silent independent work, pairs, groups or as a whole class activity. Includes full instructions for all versions plus an extension activity whereby students have to correct the passage. Includes complete set of answers plus corrected version of the passage for the extension activity so students can self or peer assess. Suitable for use as a revision activity, intervention work, starter or plenary. Will help identify student misconceptions. Can be completed as a competitive game. instructions: Hidden amongst many the lies are 5 hidden truths. The objective is to find them. • Individual (5 mins): Students should read the passage and highlight or underline the 5 hidden truths. • Pairs or Teams (10 mins): One person reads the passage with the truths highlighted in bold to their partner or teammates; intonating and pausing for effect to try and trick the other players. When one of the listeners thinks they have heard a true statement; they must either say ‘”truth” or raise their hand. If they are correct; they receive a point. If they are incorrect; the reader receives a point. For every truth the reader successfully smuggles; the reader also receives a point at the end of passage when they reveal the answers to the other players. • Whole Class (10 mins): The class can try to beat their teacher as the teacher reads the passage and the class listens carefully. Students should raise their hands if they think they hear a truth. Points are awarded as above to either the teacher or the class. Alternatively the teacher can read the passage and students silently list any true statements they hear; at the end of the passage the teacher can reveal the answers and students can self-assess; awarding themselves a mark out of 5 (one for each correctly identified truth). • Extension (15 mins): Correct the false statements (paragraphs could be shared between students).
