This lesson is designed to introduce students to a lot of new key terms that are consistently used in Geography by getting them to describe their local area. It focuses on land use, physical and human features, opinions on various areas, transport features etc.<br /> <br /> Worked well with my year 7 class (levels 2 to 5).<br /> <br /> The lesson is focused on Newcastle, therefore you will have to change some small details to fit where you are located.

This lesson teaches students about the location or China and introduces students to various features of China focusing on major settlements, rainfall, GDP per capita, population density, and ecosystems. This is a very independent lesson, it involves students investigating a range of maps to create their own detailed map incorporating the information they find. <br /> <br /> I used this lesson with a mid to high ability year 9 class.

This lesson is designed to teach students the definitions of biomes and ecosystems and to be able to locate these throughout the world. I used this lesson with a mid to high ability year 8 class. The lesson contains detailed resources which focuses on some key biomes and their key features. Each biome has a detailed information sheet with statistics on the climate, location, physical and human features. There is an emphasis on independent learning and group work.

This lesson teaches students about rural to urban migration in China, focusing on why it happens (push and pull factors) and the positive or negative impacts this has. The resources are differentiated and straightforward to use. I used this with a low to mid level year 9 class.

This lesson teaches students about the location of coral reefs, what they are made from, and why they are important. I used this with a mid to high level year 8 class. The lesson is clear and straightforward, it has a good group work activity lesson and several very informative video clips. I have included the lesson plan to help.

A lesson designed to teach students about the various tourist activities in the Arctic and the potential positive or negative impacts this may have on the area. I used this lesson with a low mixed ability year 7 class.<br /> The lesson contains differentiated resources and a structured homework task (to design a postcard for the Arctic).

The lesson includes group work activities which require the statistics that you often have at the back of modern atlases. There are also paired activities, peer assessment opportunities and challenge tasks for stretch and challenge. This is a very detailed lesson that could arguably be stretch over more than just one hour. I have used this with a high ability year 9 class on the AQA A GCSE Geography syllabus.

This lesson is designed to teach students about why China's overpopulation is a problem for the country. A wide variety of issues are discussed, with specific focus on over consumption of coal leading to pollution, deforestation and desertification. The lesson contains independent tasks, opportunities for discussion and questioning, peer assessment and stretch and challenge. The resources are very detailed, especially the information sheets.<br /> <br /> I used this lesson with a high ability year 9 class, it is also very applicable to a GCSE class or adaptable to a lower ability key stage 3 class.
