Changing Places - Contrasting Place Study Intro

(0)
The first lesson in my contrasting lesson set. I have focused on Scarborough as a contrast to Sheffield. The idea behind the lesson is to NOT tell the pupils where the contrasting place is. Set the 'sources' up around the room and give each pupil worksheet (all found as slides in the powerpoint). They are to try and work out where the place is whilst evaluating the sources. There is then a card sort activity (which can be downloaded for free form my shop) for Scarborough's history.

This serves as an introductory lesson for key stage 3. The theme of the lesson is 'What is Geography' and includes an analysis of the three different types of geography; human, environmental and physical. A very engaging introductory lesson to our wonderful subject of Geography!

Asia- Population

(0)
This is a lesson taken from a year 7 scheme of work entitled 'Around the World' - an introductory scheme of work to the subject of geography. Each lesson has a particular skill focus with this lesson's focus being 'use of data' as pupils are required to produce a choropleth map for Asia's population statistics. The main task has been differentiated and the worksheet has two versions- one for high ability learners and another for low and middle ability. Extenstion tasks also feature throughout to stretch and challenge. The lesson also features plenty of discussion opportunities and explicit progress checks throughout. Could be easily adapted for year 8 and even beyond to KS4.
Changing Places-  6 Hour Lesson set for Local Place: Sheffield

Changing Places- 6 Hour Lesson set for Local Place: Sheffield

(0)
This is the first lesson set in the local place study (AQA A-Level Changing Places) which I have chosen; Sheffield. It focuses on cultural and economic change through 3 key rebrands of the City since industrial decline. It focuses firstly on the City of Steel and why Sheffield had previously never taken control of its own identity as steel had always implicitly done this. Then, following industrial decline, Sheffield wavered and needed a 'new' identity which made it stand out and deliver a message that Sheffield was a city open to development. It did this through the strategic rebrands of City of Sport (World Student Games 1991) City of Retail (Regeneration of the Lower Don Valley and opening of Meadowhall) and, most recently (2016+) The Outdoor City. This lesson has a complimenting workbook which is also for sale in my shop. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-new-aqa-geog-a-level-changing-places-place-study-booklet-11473705 Please note that this powerpoint is approximately 6 hours worth of lesson time (it actually took me longer than this but my year 12s are very engaged with the unit and so we tend to have some very in-depth discussions which does eat into our lesson time!) There are 3 main lessons within this powerpoint (each with title slides and individual stepped outcomes) hence the costing. I have included links to relevant articles and documents in the notes section and please see the bibliography (available for free in my shop) for further sources of info. Lessons to follow will include: socio-economic inequality and demographic change with a focus on people's lived experience of Sheffield. Keep an eye on my shop..they are coming soon!
