These lessons introduce students to energy resources and teach students how to understand what renewable and non-renewable resources are, through examples and case studies.
The Lesson Topics Are as Ordered
Introduction to what energy resources, non-renewable and renewable, are.
Examination of non-renewable resources through an understanding of peat and nuclear energy.
Further examination of non-renewable resources through an understanding of peat and nuclear energy.
Analysis of renewable energy through solar energy and hydroelectric power.
Further analysis of renewable energy through biomass, tidal, and geothermal energy.
Assessment of the impact of oil and natural gas exploration in Irish Waters through the case study of the Corrib Gas Field.
Consideration of the differences between where oil is most consumed and where is is most produced, supported by a description of OPEC’s global impact.
Revision of entire topic through prompted questions in the slides.
Differentiation
Lessons are separated by title pages introducing what today’s topic is.
Icons and imagery are utilised to prompt students into understanding what is about to be asked of them i.e. a pen represents that they will have to write this information down.
Colours and imagery are used in all the slides to encourage student engagement.
Each lesson is finished off with ‘2 Stars and a Wish’.
Learning Intentions are presented at the beginning of every lesson.
Questions prompted in the slides encourage students to develop their ability to think about how world processes operate and impact each other.
Slides are made using Comic Book Sans.
Slides are designed with a variety of imagery and vocab.
Complex ideas are supported with YouTube videos. This varies the ways in which students are learning and helps them visualise large ideas and processes.

A collection of slides supporting 2 40-minute classes introducing students to the formation of volcanoes and the impacts of volcanic activity. The slides are created using PowerPoint.
The lesson topics are as ordered:
The definition of a volcano and a description of how a volcano forms, this is accompanied by a labelled diagram of a volcano. This is supported by an appropriate YouTube video which illustrates how a volcano forms.
A description of the three stages of a volcano’s life cycle; active, dormant, and extinct.
An analysis of the Pacific Ring of Fire.
An examination of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
An analysis of the positive and negatives socio-economic effects of volcanoes. This is supported by a research activity of the Iceland case study of Eyjafjallajökull.
This PowerPoint presentation was created as an introductory lesson into Volcanoes. This lesson can be supported by other topics such as Plate Tectonics, Earthquakes, and Fold Mountains. The slides are made to provide visual prompts which support 1 to 2 40-minute lessons. These slides have a variety of activities including independent thinking time, classroom discussions, written work, research prompts, and video analysations.

A collection of slides supporting 2 40-minute classes introducing students to the structure of the Earth and the movement of tectonic plates. The slides are created using PowerPoint.
The lesson topics are as ordered:
The basic structure of the Earth, before going into detail analysing the crust, the mantle, and the core.
A map of the Earth’s tectonic plates with prompting questions which encourages students to further expand the information they have just learned on the Earth’s structure.
An analysis of what tectonic plates are.
An examination of how convection currents operate and how they impact the Earth’s crust. This is supported by an already chosen YouTube video which illustrates how convection currents move tectonic plates.
An analysis of destructive, constructive, and passive plate boundaries.
Explanation
This PowerPoint presentation was created as an introductory lesson into Plate Tectonics. Students are introduced to how the Earth is structured and the processes of tectonic plates, this can be followed by lessons addressing volcanoes, earthquakes, and fold mountains. The slides are made to provide visual prompts which support 1 to 2 40-minute lessons. These slides have a variety of activities including independent thinking time, classroom discussions, written work, research prompts, and video analysations.

A fill-in-the-blanks worksheet designed to accompany the teaching of types of weathering. This Geography worksheet accommodates for a variety of student abilities, and can easily allow for differentiation in the classroom.
This activity is designed for weathering lessons in the Geography classroom. It is suitable for a range of age levels and abilities. Advised to be used for 11 years - 17 years.
Explanation: The worksheet is a pdf and is designed to be printed out. After being introduced to the types of weather, students can fill out the questions on this worksheet. This sheet can then be saved and used as revision in the future so that students have an easily accessible summary of the key points of the three different types of weathering.
Differentiation:
Imagery is used to assist learning.
The questions get progressively more difficult so that students are not deterred, and they are eased into the work thus finding it more accessible.
The worksheet is made using Comic Sans font.
There is plenty of space dedicated for the students to write.
Answers can be scaffolded by the teacher.
Simple naming worksheet to go alongside geography lessons on features of a river. This worksheet is a good way to gain summative assessment of your lessons.
Ways the worksheet can be used:
It can work well as a scaffolding exercise by completing some of the questions as a class group. This allows for the students to gain an understanding of the activity before moving on the complete it individually.
Think-Pair-Share can be utilised by allowing the students to individually complete their worksheets before asking their partner for assistance.
Peer tutoring can be used by allowing the students to correct each other’s work. This allows the correcting process to become an active participation activity rather than a passive listening but not understanding exercise.
Differentiation can be employed by asking the students who finish early to include information such as which stage of the river these features are at, and how they are formed.
The worksheet is created using comic sans text and a slight blue background.
Bright, colourful water cycle labelling worksheet.
Students must not only be able to identify the names of the four processes in the water cycle but also be able to give a brief explanation of each process. This two-part labelling ensures that students are able to develop their answers to their full capability. This worksheet also allows for scaffolding as each step can be worked on and developed as a class, followed by individual work. Moreover, think-pair-share can be utilised as students will be able to converse with each other to improve their answers.
All text used in this worksheet is Comic Sans.
An answer sheet also accompanies this worksheet to allow for easy correction for both the students and the teacher.
A simple fill in the box worksheet with visual aides and prompting questions. This worksheet is originally designed to accompany geography lessons based around farming as a primary economic activity.
