KS3 Africa Case Study- Masai Mara Assessment
This is the preparation and the assessment for a case study on the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. Students will be creating a brochure that informs people on what is happening in the Masai Mara- where it is located, the species that live in it, what problems tourism is having, how people can be a good tourist, and how other national parks can learn from the Masai Mara. Along with the assessment instructions there are resources for creating the brochure for both high and low abilities.

New AQA GCSE The Living World- Tropical Rainforests Full Unit
Included in this bundle is 7 full lessons with resources for the Tropical Rainforests unit for the new AQA GCSE specification. Each lesson is designed with differentiated tasks following a "good, better, best" style along with challenges to stretch the most able. Lessons also work to get students accustomed to writing exam-style answers to questions as a reflection of their learning.
I hope these lessons help out those of us teaching the new AQA GCSE spec and that you and your students enjoy the activities!

KS3 Rivers Processes and Features
This bundle contains all of the lessons for a KS3 unit on Rivers that goes over the processes and features for the upper, middle and lower course.
The lessons start with an overview of the water cycle to introduce students to how rivers form. It then covers the upper course processes (erosion), features (waterfalls, gorges), middle course processes (transportation), features (meanders), lower course processes (deposition), features (oxbow lakes, deltas), and also includes an assessment designed as a mid-unit assessment to go over what has been learned so far.
Excellent hands-on activities and can easily be adapted for GCSE!
KS3 Rivers Lesson #5- Middle Course Processes and Features
This lesson covers the transportation processes that occur in the Middle course and looks at the formation of meanders.
For this lesson there is a hands on activity that requires students to look at 3 different sized "particles" that they have to determine how they move. I used balloons, small tennis balls and balls of play-doh all acquired from the pound shop. You could also use other materials.
Students also complete this task while listening to the song Proud Mary because, well, rolling on the river.
Enjoy the pun!
