<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 2B: In this lesson we look at the place of the UK in the wider world.</p> <p>The lesson starts with a quick retrieval practice quiz true or false quiz. We then introduce some of the organisations that the UK is a member of and how this can give the UK global influence. The pupils then use a hexagon template to create an annotated diagram on our trade, transport, cultural and communication links. We then consider the UK’s relationship with the EU post-brexit and remind ourselves of how the UK left the EU. The pupils complete a cost/benefit analysis of this with explanation. We then look at the Commonwealth and the pupils complete an exercise that looks at the diversity of countries size and economies using indicators (Atlas or internet access needed). We then finish with a GCSE-style practice question with some guidance.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>
