A diamond 9 activity based on the effects/impacts of the 1980 eruption. Included is a series of suggestions on how to use the resource as it can be easily be adapted to suit the groups ability. Objectives are differentiated to move from description to explanation and then evaluation. Objectives have been updated to match the new GCSE 9-1 criteria. Great for encouraging discussion and collaborative learning.
A series of three self contained worksheets that cover:
1. The cause of volcanoes at a destructive plate margin.
2. The cause of volcanoes in the cascade range.
3. The specific cause of the 1980 eruption.
Suitable for KS3 and GCSE.
A complete lesson with activity sheets designed for KS3 but suitable for KS4, that include identifying the inner core, outer core, mantle and crust. Convection currents are then covered before the last activity moves onto the differences between continental and oceanic crust. Suitable for Geography tectonic units as well as science courses.
Four complete lessons comprehensively cover the content of the new AQA 9-1 GCSE. These resources use Hurricane Katrina to cover the distribution, formation, effects and responses to hurricanes as weather hazards. A wide range of activities and materials are included to allow you to move away from ‘textbook based’ lessons. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE Course. Revision and vocabulary resources also included.
A fully resourced lesson that covers the cause, effects and responses to a specific hurricane. Hurricane Katrina makes a great example as the responses were criticised by many. This makes it ideal for evaluation questions. The Power-point has differentiated objectives linked to numerical GCSE grades. Teacher notes are included for each slide with suggestions on possible approaches. The emphasis is on getting students to engage with the activities and demonstrate understanding. Resource sheets include differentiated activities and allow students to consolidate their learning. This can be completed as a single lesson with a straightforward case study template but with all the questions and resources there is plenty of material for 2 lessons and homework activities.
An introductory lesson to the topic of population. Written for GCSE but suitable for KS3. Covers the key definitions, exponential growth and looks at how data can be represented in maps and diagrams. Video links included to illustrate the key themes. No textbook necessary as this is a standalone resource but the notes make references to the Oxford Textbook.
A straightforward lesson that provides students with templates to collect the notes from the old Oxford AQA Textbook. Also included are two exam style questions which are self contained. Whilst the templates are designed to be used with the Oxford Book the assessments are self contained and can be used without any book resource.
A lesson that looks at the issues surrounding rapid population growth. It uses the older version of the Oxford Textbook. Also includes an exam assessment with mark scheme.
Two complete lessons that cover this topic. The power-point covers the key concepts with clear diagrams and video links. Also included are worksheets that cover the 3 cell model formation and how high and low pressure is linked to climate at the equator, the deserts and the UK. Key concepts covered are: the 3 cell model, air pressure, surface winds, convection and the Coriolis effect. Jet Streams and their role are also covered. The lesson can be used as a standalone resource with enough material for 2 lessons or to supplement textbook material.
A complete lesson with plenty of supporting resources. This lesson looks at how people can adapt to the impacts of future climate change. It considers managing water supply, new agricultural methods, flood defences and artificial glaciers. Included is an active starter activity to engage the students immediately. Support activity sheets to summarise the key learning or support weaker students are also included . Differentiated exam questions are also included. The lesson makes reference to the Hodder or Oxford textbooks for the main activity as the exam board have specified the content, but other sources would work just as well. Separate main activities have been included depending on which text you have, simply choose the activity that fits your style or group.
