This revision activity covers the types of sea defences from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - management strategies. It revises: description of how defence reduces erosion, costs and benefits of each strategy.
Hard:
sea wall
groynes
gabions
rock armour
Soft:
dune regeneration
beach nourishment and reprofiling
2 activities are included (see descriptions below)
1. Defence Summary Steet
This activity is designed to help the students revise the material by continually summarising and condensing the material. In the next lesson practise recall by doing the activity in reverse.
Please note – this activity may require access to students’ exercise book, a text book, or access to the BBC bitesize website.
Alternatively, students can just use the attached pictures as a stimulus to test what they remember and self-assess where their weaknesses are.
2. Defence Questions
8 longer answer questions that students could complete as a homework or as a quick test in class after completing the summary sheet activity.
There is a blank worksheet where students can summarise a case study of a defence strategy used at a specific location and how successful it was.
AQA Geography GCSE Revision Mat for the Physical Landscapes - COASTAL PROCESSES & MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
Comes with answers.
This is an A3 resource.
First lesson of a SOW looking at economic development. Introduces all measurements of development (HDI, GDP, life expectancy, birth rate etc.).
Learning questions: What it development? How is it measured?
Match key words from AQA Living World module (ecosystems, tropical rainforests, hot deserts, cold environments). 2 differentiated versions for each topic. Aimed at KS4 students but 10-word version could be used with KS3. Answers provided.
Suggestion: print and laminate several copies to re-use in class for revision or summarising topics
Introduction to push+pull factors in LICs for KS3. Clear tasks with handout and answers provided. Useful to have mini whiteboards available.
Objectives:
State push/pull factors
Explain why these factors cause people in LICs to move to cities
Match key words from AQA Natural Hazards Tectonic module (tectonic overview, earth’s structure, plate tectonics, earthquakes, volcanoes). Some overlap with words. Answers provided.
Suggestion: print and laminate several copies to re-use in class for revision or summarising topics
A very general worksheet asking students to consider the energy transition. Two simple tables that show how the different sources of electrical energy have changed in the last decade. Students have the opportunity to plot a graph and compare different energy sources. Then analyse how and why the price has changed, especially the price of renewable energies.
This worksheet comes with answers.
A simple worksheet on the Solar System. The worksheet specifically covers important definitions in the AQA KS3 syllabus such as exoplanet and light year. However it is a good worksheet for any KS3 or KS4 class. Answers
A worksheet that asks students to explain how a colony of penguins can be used to represent solids liquids and gas in an extended writing paragraph. It then asks the students to consider the disadvantages of the model, before coming up with their own idea.
Comes with answers to the first two questions. The third question there will be many different answers to.
Students are given a short description of two journeys. They are also given data in table form They then plot this graph onto distance time graphs.
They then answer some simple questions about the graphs. Good for low/mid ability.
This package talks the students through a model of solids liquids and gases. The states of matter are modeled as a house party. From sitting down for dinner (solid), to dancing (liquid), to running about the house (gas). The loudness of the music represents the energy.
The students are then asked to come up with their own model. Comes with a power point slide and model answers
Fill in the gaps activity on Ionising radiation. Booklet then asks students to come up with their own way of thinking about ionising radiation after being given an example.
This worksheet asks students to look at two examples of evolution happening over human life times.
Both examples include a species of lizard that has either had to adapt to a new environment or has had to deal with the introduction of competition into their habitat.
The higher worksheet has the students answer more general questions about the research and its implications.
The lower worksheet uses the sheet to re-enforce curriculum knowledge about evolution.
A great extension sheet for both the AQA Forces topic and Space topics more generally.
Ask students to quantitatively and qualitatively consider the effects of gravity on some of the more lesser known objects in our Solar System.
2 sets of questions Easy and difficult about SHC
Easy questions just apply the equation
More difficult questions require students to re-arrange the equation and convert units.
Comes with answers.
A series of questions and Venn Diagram on the two theories. This is then followed up by a model for the students to analyse. A space is then provided to come up with their own model
