Students are asked for definitions, notes, a GCSE-style question etc. This is a great flipped resource OR revision tool.

Great for a cover lesson or the run up to Christmas. This A3 double-sided learning mat investigates Santa’s carbon footprint and asks students to investigate how it can be reduced. There are a few comprehension questions related to the content on the sheet, and an open-ended activity asking students to persuade Santa to make some green changes to his routine!

This unit intended to give basic world concepts; continents & oceans, concepts of mapping and basic map skills. Each lesson is built to expand geographical vocabulary and provide opportunities to build a geographical skills toolbox. Every lesson provides opportunities to develop subject specific literacy and numeracy skills, to work collaboratively, and to practice and develop mapping skills which will then be used throughout KS3/4. A concerted effort was made to move away from cartoon-style mapping activities, and instead to allow students to use sophisticated and real-life, local OS maps. Every effort has been made to reduce photocopying by creating resources which can be laminated and used by multiple groups or repeatedly throughout the unit.
