Climate Change: The Effects of Climate Change
<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1A: In this fourth lesson in the section we look at the effects of climate change around the world.</p>
<p>We start with a quote from Great Thunberg and the pupils discuss whether they think she is right that we should be panicking about climate change and its impacts.</p>
<p>We then look briefly at climate change impacts in the UK where the pupils will annotate a map of the UK using information from a video clip. We then look at the impacts worldwide, the pupils will be given an A3 sheet with a map surrounded by the impacts, they first locate the region the where the impact will be felt, rate the seriousness of the impact and then categorise each one as either social, economic, environmental or political.</p>
<p>Using the information they have now gathered they write a response to Greta Thunberg’s quote using evidence from the lesson. We finish with a post-it plenary using a 2-mark question from the 2019 exam.</p>
<p>In a nutshell lesson includes:</p>
<p>Discussion starter over Greta Thunberg Quote<br />
Annotated diagram of the impacts on the UK<br />
A3 map task on the effects of climate change worldwide<br />
