Creative and innovative resources that meet the needs of every learner in every lesson.
Why create numerous resources when one can do it all.
Most resources are for geography lessons, but many are for whole-school too and cross over into numerous subjects.

A fully resources lesson to provide students with and overview of the distribution of rainforests & deserts.
Students describe the distribution and then look at effective ways to describe graphs. This is an important geographical skill that supports pupils in picking up those easy marks in assessments.
The lesson has a focus upon the climate & location of deserts & tropical rainforests, but another layer for other ecosystems can easily be added.
I print the rainforest map onto tracing paper which the kids then put the base map in order to create a very simplified GIS map.
Resources for a very simple (yet effective) lesson to leave for cover work.
All instructions are incorporated into the PowerPoint.
Works best printed on on A3.

A fantastic lesson that the kids loved doing.
It involves pupils creating their own weather forecast linked to the factors that influence the weather in the UK (NAD & air masses).
They simple read the information provided (I normally print it in A3), make notes on it and create a weather forecast that they then present to the class. They work on their presentations for homework too.
Very simple to teach and usually takes 3 lessons to get through.
All the resources needed for the pupils to create a shopping list of the key ingredients of tropical storms.
Print off information sheet that pupils use to gain an understanding of the key things needed for tropical storms to occur. Works well on A3.
Pupils can make rough notes first.
They then create their ingredients list, putting the information into their own words.
There is then a sort to complete.
S&C can be to sort their work using the keys provided.
Information created for easy access for pupils to gain an understanding of the causes, effects and adaptations to drought.
It is designed to allow pupils to work independently (in small groups) to create their own news broadcast role play.
Show them the news clip from youtube.
Discuss what makes a great roleplay news broadcast.
Show info sheet (I like them printed in A3 & in colour)
Pupils makes notes on the information. A mindmap works well with 3 branches (causes, effects & responses).
Once notes are done, they then create their news broadcast.
Very simple to teach & kids love it.
A super lesson that explores landfill.
This took roughly 8 hours to plan & create.
Students use the information sheet (no need for books) to create a newspaper article.
All SEND resources created too.
SPaG sheet to cover tricky key words.
I would recommend printing the information sheet in colour & in A3 & laminating it, to be used again. The cartoon strip is best in A3 too.
