THIS RESOURCE IS FREE (AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN THIS TOPIC)
I believe it is our collective responsibility to deliver this topic with as much impact as possible, ensuring that students truly grasp the significance of our actions against the environment. By giving students a voice to discuss these issues and empowering them to actively contribute to the creation of a sustainable future, they can start to inspire change in themselves, others and hopefully (one day) the wider world.
✓ Engaging presentation
✓ Recaps previous learning
✓ Lots of short AFL tasks
✓ Exam question examples
This lesson on Habitat Destruction is designed for KS4 Science students enrolled in the CIE Cambridge IGCSE Biology 0610 (2023-25) course. This is the second lesson in the topic 20 Human Influences on Ecosystems.
The lesson recaps previous learning from other linked topics to ensure students have a strong foundation before diving into the material. It also includes concise and easy-to-understand information and a variety of quick assessment for learning tasks to help students solidify their understanding of the topic. There is a strong emphasis on answering exam questions, with examples and the mark scheme included in the presentation.
