Pupils cut out the revision cards and fold them down the middle dotted line so they have the questions on one side and the answers on the other. The cards include ecosystems, rainforests and hot deserts. The case studies I have used are Malaysia for rainforests and the Thar Desert but the cards are easily edited to reflect any different case studies.

Case study on opportunities for development in the Thar Desert. There is an A3 summary sheet to complete during the lesson featuring map work, statement sorting and a higher level explanation task as a plenary or homework depending on the length of your lesson. It also excludes a practice exam question and mark scheme.

Pupils cut out the revision cards and fold them in half down the middle so the questions are on one side and the answers are on the other. I have used Hurricane Matthew and the Somerset Levels floods as my case studies but the cards can be edited to reflect the case studies you have used.

Step by step instructions for drawing two climate graphs, one for Manaus in Brazil and one for London as a comparison. Includes outline axes for lower ability.

Pupils cut out the cards and fold them down the middle so they have the questions on one side and the answers on the other. Perfect for at home revision.

This lesson starts with a tourism recap using a domino activity. Then pupils are taught about what ecotourism is and pupils then assess two real examples to determine how sustainable they think each one is. They then have to design their own eco tourist resort to demonstrate their understanding. The task is differentiated so that lower ability pupils can use a list of characteristics they can choose from. There is also a mark scheme for pupils to self or peer assess their designs.

Printable revision cards for pupils. They can cut them up and fold them in half so the questions are on one side and the answers on the other. I have used Chile and Nepal for the case study questions but these can be edited to suit what you have studied.

Introduction lesson to hot deserts. It covers what they are like, locations, climate, as well as plant and animal adaptations. Includes map and atlas skills, climate graph plotting and data calculations.

Great class or homework activity for pupils to show their knowledge of weather and allow them to develop their creativity. It comes with a self or peer marking sheet that allows them to highlight what went well and what would be even better if. There is also room for an overall grade and a teacher comment.

A differentiated lesson for pupils to understand how plate movements lead to volcanic eruptions. There are differentiated resources to allow pupils to write their own explanation of how a volcano erupts at a destructive plate margin. This is follwed by pupils learning the structure of a volcano. Finally pupils learn the difference between shield and composite volcanoes and how their eruptions may differ.

Pupils plot the track and strength of Hurricane Matthew they then predict where will see the greatest impact and then compare this to the death tolls experienced by each area.

A3 one page revision sheet including Chile and Nepal as earthquake case studies.

Lesson designed for new AQA. Includes some practice exam questions.

Designed for the new AQA GCSE. Pupils create fact files comparing the two earthquakes uses the Oxford textbook (one with the ant on the front). Works really well as a cover lesson or as flipped learning for pupils to complete at home.

An introduction to natural hazards. Includes photo and map interpretation, spider diagram drawing, category sorting, explaining and pie chart drawing.

This lesson contains differentiated resources for pupils to understand the significance of factors affecting the damage done in an earthquake. Pupils start by guessing the magnitude of an earthquake from the magnitude and a photo. This is to get them thinking about the role of magnitude in fatalities. Pupils then create a hypothesis to predict the relationship between magnitude and fatalities. There is data and a graph outline (for lower ability pupils) to draw a scatter graph to see what the link is. Pupils then think about the other factors that affect earthquake impacts and create a significance star to show which factors they think are most important. They then write a paragraph to justify their decisions. Lastly there is a post it note based plenary so that you can assess their understanding.

Lesson activities including map work on the location of Nepal, describing the causes of the earthquake from maps and diagrams (support sheet provided for lower ability pupils), a differentiated effects task (higher ability pupils create effects cards after reading news paper articles) including a diamond 9 exercise. Also includes a homework task asking pupils to think about priorities after the earthquake and what should be included in an earthquake kit and why.

Geography department handbook for KS3-4.

Activity for pupils to draw and compare population pyramids for The Gambia and The UK, using 2023 data. There is a outline set of axes with an example plot on it for lower ability pupils and a labelling activity to pupils to demonstrate their ability to interpret the graphs. In addition there is a visual hexagons task which asks pupils to explain various factors and their influence on population size and structure which would make a good homework task.

Pupils show their knowledge of the layers of the earth by creating a design for a machine to dig to the centre of the earth and annotating it. Includes a self/peer/teacher assessment table which can be highlighted for quick marking.
