Intended for Y8 but suitable for Y9, this lesson is part of a fully-resourced synoptic unit about Asia designed to draw together pupils’ learning from the past two years in Geography. The unit includes elements of coasts, rivers, climate change, development, urbanisation and looks at more challenging and contemporary issues such as the roots of the development gap between North and South Korea and also the abuse of Uighers in China.

This lesson introduces the location and discharge of the major Asian rivers. Pupils are reminded of the key elements of their ‘Rivers’ unit (studied earlier but not required as this can also form an introduction to rivers). They create a scatter graph to plot discharge vs. areas of the drainage basis to establish if there is any correlation. They consider what other factors might influence discharge before looking at population density of Asia and considering how water supply might be related to this. The lesson ends with a video on the importance of the Yangtze River.
