This is a writing frame/template for a 6-mark Explain question for AQA GCSE Geography. I am trialling this with my GCSE students. It is probably not perfect but I’ve tried to break it down as much as possible for students struggling with longer answers and higher-order command words.
This should be printed out on A3, folded in half to make an A4 booklet, with each page on one side.
The format of how this works:
pg1 - Walkthrough - I’ve really tried to take a step-by-step guide by using an example with different answers. It points out what’s good and what to improve on.
pg2 - Template - This is where it’s more of a compartmentalised layout. Hopefully they can use this to visually see how their answer will look.
pg3 - Exam Answer - so how they would see it in the exam
pg4 - Improved answer - I’ve put on a levels table in student speak and hen you’ve marked it, they have to find evidence of what you mean and fill in last column. Then there is space for them to make improvements to ONE section of their answer.
Thanks for looking and hope you found this useful to you and your students. Good luck with your results!
I also have writing frames/templates for 9-mark Assess and Evaluate and 6-mark Assess. These also come as a bundle.
Spanish, Polish and Lithuanian translations (checked by native speakers) for GCSE geography for Section A of Challenges in the human environment.
Also includes a tab of general exam words translations.
This a new set of questions (which mirror the two SAMs currently available for Paper 3) and is based on the JUNE 2012 pre-release resource booklet.
There is now a basic markscheme for content (including appropriate AO splits) but you will need to use the SAMs for levels table. This was somewhat tricky to put together as the old-prelease seems a lot wordier than the unseen resource booklets we are seeing so far.
I hope you find it useful.
A quick lesson concentrating on the command word ‘analyse’ for the Synoptic Paper 3 geography paper for Edexcel.
There are some practice questions using old-prelease stimuli with a markscheme.
Students need to complete a practice question from one of the SAMs beforehand to help with the flow of the lesson - resources for this are on the powerpoint.
Enjoy.
The second lesson from Enquiry Question 2 of the carbon and energy unit.
The lessons looks at the slow carbon cycle and looks at geology, volcanic outgassing, and chemical weathering as well as an overview of the rock cycle. The Hodder flag textbook is needed.
There is an independent study task to follow this lesson up with.

Made this lesson as part of a short sequence to cover the 'Food' chapter of Section 3 in the new (2016) GCSE Geography syllabus for AQA.
This lesson would benefit from using the Hodder - Widdowson et al book (white/green cover).
This is a case study but has an essay template for students to use to plan an answer to a relevant exam questions based on the success of this case study. The longer questions with more demanding command words is a real concern for students taking this course, which is why I feel this resource is worth a look at.
This template could easily be adapted to other 'Evaluation' exam questions and will also help with DME structuring. Unfortunately there is no mark scheme at present for this one here. Once I have cobbled one together I will include (free to those who have already bought this resource- message me). Thanks.
Please find step-by-step guides and templates for 4 main command words for Geography A Level:
Explain
Analyse
Evaluate
Assess
Insert the powerpoint slides into your lessons when you introduce a specific exam question (change the question obviously!) and give out of a copy of the template for students to fill in. Gradually remove this scaffold over time.
I made this based on examboard advice and literature.
A lesson aimed at Year 7 which is based on work from Geog.1.
The lesson explores a boy from Pakistan who makes footballs and why is he trapped in this viscious circle. Students I've taught have really loved the &'What if...&'; discussion. Normally get them to discuss with person next to them for 2 mins then feedback, then move onto next one.
All resources and a lesson plan and powerpoint included.
There are lots of different ones on TES but I thought I would add my contribution to geography level descriptors.\n\nEach level is a mountain with skills on how to reach the peak. It's a bit cheesy.
