IGCSE Geography Personal Learning Checklists (PLC’S) for all themes within the syllabus. Theme 1 – Population and Settlement Theme 2 – The Natural Environment • Tectonics (Earthquakes and Volcanoes) • Coasts • Rivers • Weather • Climate and Vegetation (Deserts and Rainforests) Theme 3 – Economic Development • Development • Agriculture • Industry • Tourism • Energy and Water Outlines all content covered within the course to ensure pupils can prioritize their revision and rank their understanding. PLC’s are editable so case studies can be changed with ease.

Changing Economic World – Part 1 double sided revision sheet. I would recommend printing it doubled sided on A3 but can also be printed A4. This sheet is aimed at pupils who prefer more structured revision. The sheet covers 11 different sections within the first part of the Changing Economic World spec. As it’s a large unit I couldn’t fit all the content onto one doubled sided sheet – please see my Changing Economic World – Part 2 sheet which cover the rest of the content. Sections covered include: Development Indicators HDI Categorizing Countries The DTM Population Structure (Pyramids) Key Terms Causes of Uneven Development Reducing the Development Gap Consequences of Uneven Development Advantages/Disadvantages of Tourism – Jamaica Exam Qu’s

Map symbol story worksheet in which pupils use an OS map key to help decode a letter. Pupils then create their own story using a minimum of 10 symbols.

Living World (Deserts) double sided revision sheet. I recommend printing doubled sided in A3 but can be printed A4 as well. This sheet is aimed at pupils who prefer more structured revision or lower ability students who need more support. The sheets cover 12 different sections covering the Deserts Section of Living World. Sections covered include: Location Desert Formation Climate Soil Plant Adaptations Animal Adaptations Desertification Human and Physical Causes Reducing Desertification Opportunities and Challenges Exam Qu’s Key Terms

Double-sided work sheet summarising the Primary/Secondary Effects and Short/Long-Term Responses to Typhoon Haiyan. Sheets has ‘mini’ sections including a word fill introduction, mix and match effects activity, a focus on a NGO’s response (Oxfam) and then categorising responses. The last activity is a 9 mark exam question. Hope it helps! Please have a look at my other revision resources.

Rivers double sided revision sheet can be printed on either A4 or A3. This sheet is aimed at pupils who prefer more structured revision or lower ability students who need more support. The sheets cover 12 different sections within the ‘River Landscapes’ section of UK Physical Landscapes. Sections covered include: Long Profile Lateral and Vertical Erosion Types of Erosion Transportation Deposition Meanders Ox-Bow Lakes Levees Waterfalls Causes of River Flooding Hydrographs Key Terms

Hazards Revision Sheet can be printed doubled sided on either A4 or A3. Sheet focuses on the impacts, management and response to earthquakes rather then volcanoes. This sheet is aimed at pupils who prefer more structured revision or lower ability students who need more support. Sheet numbered 1 - 12 as used in conjunction with revision clocks. Students to pick which sheet they’d prefer allowing for self differentiation.

Living World (Tropical Rainforest) double sided revision sheet can be printed doubled sided on either A4 or A3. This sheet is aimed at pupils who prefer more structured revision or lower ability students who need more support. The sheets cover 11 different sections covering the Tropical Rainforest Section of Living World. Sections covered include: Location Climate Soils Layers Animal Adaptations Plant Adaptations Value of the Rainforest Deforestation (Causes) Deforestation (Impacts) Sustainable Management Key Terms

Coasts Revision Sheet can be printed doubled sided on either A4 or A3. This sheet is aimed at pupils who prefer more structured revision or lower ability students who need more support. Sheet numbered 1 - 12 as used in conjunction with revision clocks. Students to pick which sheet they’d prefer allowing for self differentiation.

Fully Differentiated Structure Strips for a range of exam questions within the Coasts Unit. Questions include: - The Formation of a Wave Cut Platform (4 marks) - Transportation and Depositional Landforms (6 marks) - How effective is hard engineering in reducing cliff collapse? (9 marks) Each question contains 3 sheets (gold, sliver and bronze) to allow for easy differentiation with varying help within the strip down the side of page. Pupils have responded very well to these especially when reflecting on assessments. Also really useful for revision!

Outstanding Lesson on Physical Fieldwork Write Up . A selection of 3 differentiated booklets (Bronze, Sliver and Gold) used to answer the hypothesis: ‘How does a meandering section of a river compare to a straight section?’. Booklets used over a full hour and contain various activities such as: Literacy Links, Reasons for Location Selection (Health and Safety) Graphing Cross Sections, Labelling Cross Sections and a Structure Strip (for a 6 mark exam question). Further activities where carried out measuring velocity etc. however were discussed in a different lesson. NOTE: Location of our fieldwork was Gordale Scar. There’s a small section on why we selected this site. You could easily change this to your location or change to a general ‘What makes a good fieldwork site?’.

This is a revision companion guide linked with the ‘CGP GSCE AQA Geography 9-1 Course’ book. The booklet contains checklists, keywords and exam practice questions. It also contains suggestions for revision techniques and ‘top tips’ for the exam. This booklet is for Unit 2 (Human Paper). It contains the themes of: - Section A - Urban Issues and Challenges - Section B - The Changing Economic World - Section C - Resources Management & Energy (NOT Food and Water) However the booklet can be easily adapted to add in/take out sections. Unfortunately no links with GCSEPod as most of the Unit 1 topics are ‘in progress’. Pupils find this guide extremely useful to help structure their revision and help give them a starting point. It’s also good for them to have something to work through ticking off as they go tracking their own progress. It really helped with motivation for outside of school revision. See Unit 1 (Physical Paper) Booklet as well!

Latitude and Longitude worksheet asking to students to label the main lines of latitude and longitude across the globe. Sheet also contains extension questions which increase in difficulty.

Outstanding creative lesson in which students create/construct their own shanty town dwelling. Lessons focus on recapping the issues within shanty towns and ways in which governments can help/hinder conditions. Lesson Covers: - Push and Pull factors for Rural to Urban Migration. - Common features of a shanty town ‘house’ (covered before students ‘build’ their own) - Human and Physical factors that can impact standard of living (chance cards) - Levelled questioning based in Blooms Taxonomy - Comparisons to own lifestyle focusing on empathy. Students need a ‘starter kit’ to create help create their house e.g. cardboard, cartoons, plastics bags, yogurt pots etc. You will also need waste materials for the tip.
