Lesson 9 Are we completely destroying our coral reefs>
This lesson studies the threats to our coral reef ecosystems. Students carry out a skills taks to explore the threats to the GBR before a diamond 9 ranking activity gets learners to consider the biggest threat. Then students compare this threat to that of the coral triangle and decide which is the biggest threat.

Lesson 6 Case study River Tees physical processes
This lesson explores the geomorphic processes that occur along the River Tees. The lesson starts by investigating the location of the river within the UK. Then provides an insight into how the river changes from the source to the mouth.

OCR A Lesson 7 River Tees human activity
This lesson investigates the importance of the river Tees and how human activities such as river management impact the landscape. The lesson starts by questioning students on why we need rivers such as the Tees. Then learning moves on to the impact of hard and soft engineering strategies on the river landscape.

OCR A Lesson 10 Case study Holderness Coast
In this lesson students will explore the Holderness coast. A sorting task will help them decide why the coastline is vulnerable. Then students will explore how the coastline is impacted by human intervention by teaching each other various hard and soft engineering strategies.

Lesson 6 How did coral reefs form?
This lesson explores the existence of coral reefs. Students start by defining a coral reef before exploring their characteristics. Then students investigates the formation of coral reefs looking at the Great Barrier as an example.

Lesson 10 Which is the best way to manage coral reefs?
This final lesson in the biomes on the edge topic explores the management strategies behind coral reef ecosystems. Students begin by deciding whether projects such as Lady Echo Island are effective. Then students scale coral restoration projects before deciding which are more effective.

Lesson 1 Why do rainforests exist?
This lesson gets students to discover the reasons for rainforest distribution. Students start by looking at their definitions using the freya model, going on to then explore their locations and why we find them within various lattitudes. Finally students are challenged by investigating an article on a theory behind how more recent rainforests have been created.

Lesson 2 Is adapting to a rainforest challenging?
This lesson explores the adaptations within a tropical rainforest. First there is a memory based task that introduces students to the structure of a rainforest. Then there is an explanation task that explore the physical and behavoural adaptations of a variety of plants and animals within a TRF.

Lesson 7 Is it a challenge for plants and animals to adapt to coral reefs?
This lesson looks at the structure and adaptation of a coral reef. Students start with a match up task which challenges their memory of how coral reefs form. Then students teach each other how plants and animals have adapted to the coral reef ecosystem before deciding just how challenging these adaptations are.

Lesson 8 Could our planet survive without coral reefs?
This lesson explores the value of coral reefs. Students firstly explore the difference between value for humans and value for the environment using the Great Barrier Reef as a case study. Then students compare these values with that of the coral triangle.

Lesson 3 Why are rainforests so valuable?
This lesson explores the value of goods and services within a TRF. Students have a sorting task which helps the teacher identify whether students understand the difference between goods and services. Then, through guided reading, students explore and rank the value of each good and service before determining which is the most valuable.

Lesson 5 Can we ever save our rainforests?
This lesson investigates the management of TRF’s. Students will begin by exploring the user groups with a TRF, playing the parts of four stakeholders through a speaking and listening task. The students will investigate a variety of management strategies before deciding which is most effective and why.
