AQA GCSE Geography lesson for Unit 1A. We start with a simple retrieval quiz, before then looking at the situation of Naples and asking why such a large city has developed near a clear potential threat. We explore this by completing a photo challenge activity with differentiated questions. Pupils will then complete a question wheel about the different reasons why people would choose to live in areas of tectonic hazards. We move on to consider Iceland and the benefits that the country has experienced by living on a plate margin. We then tackle a GCSE-style question with some guidance on structure should the students need it.
In a nutshell the lesson includes:-
Retrieval starter
Photo challenge differentiated activity on Naples and Vesuvius
Question wheel for explaining reasons for living in a hazardous area.
Video on Iceland’s geothermal energy.
Activity exploring benefits for Iceland
GCSE-style question with guidance
I hope this saves you valuable planning time.
