The lesson starts with a graph showing the changing energy use since the 1950s. the pupils can work in pairs to discuss the main changes. Next there is a living graph activity linked to the reasons for changing energy use and answers. Next is a graph description activity, the graph shows the changes in energy use over time. After that students are given information about sustainable energy solutions at the local and national scale. There is a note taking sheet for pupils to record and evaluate the solutions and also a mark scheme to assess their completed grids. All resources for use in the lesson are included in the PowerPoint.
This lesson teaches students about India’s population policy, which aims to reduced the birth rate to below 3 children per women. I prefer to teach this to the one child policy as it is more factually based. It includes note taking sheets, modelled assessed paragraphs, mark schemes which can be adjusted.
This rainforest bundle includes lessons on climate, water cycle, nutrient cycle, exploitation, management, food webs, location, structure, plant adaptations and rainforest tribes.
This lesson introduces the rainforest location, with a writing frame for locating the forest. It then uses a guided fantasy (story telling) to create a sense of place. There are diagrams and descriptions of the layers of the rainforest. Finally there is a plenary quiz.
Pupils are introduced to the concept of food webs and shown a range of diagrams. They are then split into groups. Each group is given a set of images of rainforest animals. They then need to use the internet to research what the animals eat and to classify them into herbivores, carnivores etc. before sticking them down and creating their own food web. There is a plenary bingo activity to tests the students understanding of the key terminology used in the lesson.
This lesson includes a range of maps, photos and facts which tell the story of the andesitic eruption in 1991. Pupils can take notes to build up their case study of the eruption.
This lesson includes opportunities to draw climate graphs, describe them and compare them. It also allows them to read about why climate varies and to apply this knowledge. The lesson was designed as a cover lesson and includes a lesson plan, worksheets to write on and a set of answers.
This lesson includes details about all earthquake hazards including ground shaking, soil liquefaction, tsunamis, landslides, avalanches and flooding. the PowerPoint incorporates images, flow charts and video clips to help the students to develop their understanding.
Included are a series of lessons involving decision making and role play activities for use with 11-18 classes. They are designed to allow pupils to demonstrate higher level skills from Bloom's taxonomy but in a supported manner. As well as including role play cards and DME grids and resources, the lessons also incorporate a range of other strategies to increase engagement.
Firstly, the students are given a glossary of trade definitions to complete. Next the students are shown a table of the goods exported from countries at a range of levels of development. Students should be asked to identify the pattern of exports. On slide 4 there are images and text to act as prompts to explain how trade affects development. Next the students are asked to interpret a pie chart showing the share of world trade in ACs, EDCs and LIDCs. After that the students are given data about Ethiopia's imports and exports and asked to identify the impact of trade on the country. Next the students are asked to plot on a map the countries that Ethiopia imports from and exports to. This map can then be used to make links to bilateral aid. Finally, the students are given data about the value of exports and imports in Ethiopia and are asked to assess the impact of trade. All resources are included in the PowerPoint.
This lesson is designed to teach the students about the different types of aid and to identify the advantages and disadvantages of different types of aid. To start the students are asked to consider where aid is needed at the moment and what type of aid they have given recently. Next there is a video clip introducing the different types of aid. After that they are given definitions of the main types of aid including multi-lateral aid, bilateral aid and voluntary aid. They are then asked to classify the advantages and disadvantages of this aid. Next, there is a recall quiz to test the students understanding of these terms. After that the class is split into groups of four. Each group is given a disaster card, aid costs sheet and aid package sheet. The students are asked to identify which aid is needed in the immediate, short and long term. They are then asked to refine their ideas to fit a budget of 700 units. You can also dish out chance cards to groups, which may benefit or disadvantage their aid package. Some groups can share their aid package plans with the class. The plenary is a cartoon interpretation activity. All resources are included at the end of the PowerPoint.
Firstly, students are introduced to positive and negative feedback. They are then given examples of positive and negative feedback in the water and carbon cycles. they are required to order the statements to demonstrate feedback (answers provided). Next the students are asked to use the resources provided to explain the impacts of diurnal changes in solar radiation, seasonal changes in sunlight, temperature and foliage. Next there is a Spearman’s rank activity. This requires pupil to develop a null hypothesis, calculate Spearman’s rank and assess the significance of the results. This is designed to be set either as a test or homework activity for the students to complete independently (answers provided). All resources are included at the end of the PowerPoint.
Firstly, there is a gap fill activity to remind the students about the greenhouse effect. After that the students are given copies of the carbon and the water cycles and are asked if global warning will increase or decrease the processes within the cycles. Next the students are given diagrammatic information about the effects of climate change on the water cycle. the students are required to translate this information into an annotated water cycle diagram. The students repeat this for the carbon cycle, except this time the information is in a written format. Resources are included at the end of the PowerPoint.
the resources are designed for use with the new Geography A Level. Included in this bundle are the dynamic equilibrium in the carbon and water cycles, land use changes impact on the cycles, water extraction, positive and negative feedback impact on the cycles, short term, medium term and long term impact on the cycles, research and monitoring of changes in the cycles and finally how the cycles can be managed.
This lesson builds students knowledge from 4 to 16 point compass directions. It also teaches students to describe places in relation to one another. There are two quizzes which test pupil understanding one about skull island, which also test understanding of the use of map symbols and the other using direction to draw a symbol. A map skills booklet accompanies this lesson
This lesson enables students to develop an understanding of how island arcs form from ocean trenches. It incorporates a wide range of photos and diagrams. It also includes note taking sheets with key terminology that the pupils need to include when explaining.
In this lesson pupils will become a character. During a story telling activity they will answer a specific question linked to 3 sustainable transport schemes in Leeds. They will then share their answers in scrambled groups. An exam question and plan is included along with a mark scheme. The plenary is a case study fact quiz. All resources are included at the end of the PowerPoint.
