A lesson on the human activity on rivers. Flood defence & causes. Suitable for all age groups and specifications. Resources really allow for independent learning and provide all of the ingredients needed for all abilities of students to access the learning. It also has a quick GCSE style test that puts learning into context. 2 to 3 lessons worth of content.

All resources needed to teach (probably 2 lessons) on lag time, discharge and features/uses along the course of a river system. All ages.

A lesson to provide learners with the opportunity to create understanding of river features. Information sheets have been created that allow pupils to drive their own learning. The structured A3 worksheet has all of the ingredients needed for all levels of pupil to succeed and access the learning. e.g. images & glossary sections. For any age group & specification.

A lesson to provide learners with the opportunity to create understanding of the ways that material is transported by a river (traction, saltation, suspension & solution). For any age group & specification.

A lesson where students learn all about the water cycle. They create a sequenced description, which leads to the creation of a piece of poetry. For all age groups & GCSE/KS3/KS2 specifications.

A worksheet to use with pupils post assessment. Students firstly create a percentage from their test score. They then collect data from their peers and fill in the table. Once completed, they order the data and calculate the mean & median. They then plot the data as a stack graph or double bar graph (boys & girls). To finish, they complete the target setting sheet. Data can be analysed once all elements have been done. Can be used with all year groups, but works well for KS3.

A booklet that allows pupils to practice a wide and varied number of skills on school grounds. It supports pupils in the development of key skills needed for GCSE geographical success. e.g. grid references, mapping, location, data presentation, data evaluation, questionnaires, methods and explaining. Pupils use the booklet as a step by step guide to work through tasks, after collection of data on the school grounds. Simple hypotheses are included along with the opportunity for conclusions. It will require the changing of the Google earth image of the school, with your own. This takes roughly half a term for year 7.

A work sheet (ideally printed in A3) that allows pupils to breakdown the correct way to answer specific command words in questions. Designed for all levels and ages of pupils, but with a specific GCSE focus.
