This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This lesson 2 HOUR lesson looks at how flood plains and levees are formed. The resource includes numerous differentiated worksheets to assist pupils of varying ability in their understanding. A card annotation task is used to explain how levees are produced through successive floods. A paired exercise is then used to develop pupils understanding of river floodplains.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This 1-2 HOUR lesson teaches pupils the skills needed to compare earthquakes in countries of differing economic development. The lesson looks at the earthquakes causes, as well as their contrasting effects and response. The resource includes information sheets on the two case studies (Haiti and Kobe), as well as a comparison table. An A3 information collection sheet is used to consolidate the case study information. This can also be used alongside documentaries on the two events.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. The lesson investigates features of the middle stage, with a focus on meanders and ox-bow lakes. The lesson starts by explaining why some parts of a river flow faster than others. The pupils draw a cross section of a river and annotate, to highlight these ideas. The lesson includes class discussion questions to check learning throughout the lesson. A flow diagram is used to teach pupils the sequence, as well as a fun, timed class activity. A writing frame is included to help pupils practice writing an independent exam style answer.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. The lesson is part of the ‘Economic futures in the UK module’ This TWO HOUR lesson investigates the need for improvements to the UK’s road, rail, air and sea transport infrastructure. Students learn how smart motorways can aid traffic flow and reduce congestion. The pupil’s debate over the benefits of HS2, thought a verbal tennis game and paired exercise. Liverpool 2 is the focus for sea improvements, while Heathrow is the example used to overview improvements to airport infrastructure.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. The package constitutes part of the ‘The changing economic world’ module. This series of lessons attempts to evaluate the various strategies used to reduce the development gap. The bundle overviews the following: investment, industrial development and tourism, aid, using
intermediate technology, fair trade, debt relief and micro-finance loans . The package includes instructional footnotes on how to deliver each lesson, as well as factual information to assist staff.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. The package constitutes part of the ‘The changing economic world’ module. The bundle includes a detailed and engaging power point for each of the lessons, as well as supporting videos, activities and worksheets. Instructional footnotes on how to deliver each lesson are provided, as well as factual information to assist staff. This medium term scheme can be delivered in approximately four weeks of teaching, in which most lessons take two hours to deliver. The growth and land use within Rio de Janeiro as a city is over-viewed in a introductuary lesson. The social, economic and environmental opportunities and challenges are then detailed. The package finally teaches pupils: why favelas have grown, the challenges they present and how authorities have attempted to improve them.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. This scheme of work provides 6 WEEKS of fully resourced, teaching and learning resources. The topic looks at the processes of erosion & weathering, transportation and deposition. Coastal landforms of both erosion and deposition are investigated, along with the mass movement events that occur on soft coastlines. Finally the module looks at how hard and soft engineering methods can be used to protect the coast from flooding and erosion.
This package includes all of the teaching and learning resources required to teach this 4-5 WEEK topic. The bundle includes a detailed and engaging power point for each of the lessons, as well as supporting videos, activities and worksheets. Homework tasks and differentiated support is provided for pupils of varying abilities. The package firstly highlights the characteristics of this ecosystem, investigating its location, climate and soil. The layers of the rainforest are studied, as well as numerous plant adaptations. The scheme then looks at deforestation. The causes, effects and management are covered in depth. An assessment and mark scheme is provided to test pupils understanding at the end of the unit.
This resource relates to the AQA specification for GCSE (UK) exams from 2018 onwards. The lesson is part of the ‘The changing economic world’ module. The scheme will require approximately 11 hours of teaching time. This series of lessons investigates how development is measured. The effectiveness of the various development indicators are scrutinised, in order to gain an accurate insight into the true development of a country. The demographic transition model is studied to show how and why populations change, as a country develops. Students are then taught to relate these ideas to population pyramids, and learn to interpret the shapes of population structures. The scheme analyses why some areas of the world struggle to develop, while others prosper. Finally, the effect of this uneven development is considered.
This KS3 package includes all of the lesson resources required to teach this 9 WEEK topic . The bundle includes a detailed and engaging power point for each of the lessons, as well as supporting videos and activity worksheets. Differentiated tasks and support is provided for pupils of varying abilities. A end of unit exam and mark scheme is included as well as a detailed scheme of work, that explains step by step how the resources are to be used. The scheme investigates both renewable and non-renewable resources as well as the causes, effects and mitigation of global warming.
This 7 WEEK full scheme of work provides all the teaching and learning materials needed, to deliver the AQA tectonic hazards specification for exams from 2018 onwards. This high quality package starts with an insight into natural hazards and hazard risk. The scheme then investigate the structure of the Earth and plate tectonics, to provide the required background knowledge. The location of both earthquakes and volcanoes in relation to plate boundaries is covered; as well as the physical processes taking place at constructive, conservative, destructive and collision boundaries. Case studies of earthquakes in two counties of contrasting levels of development is included, to show both primary and secondary effects, as well as short and long term responses. Pupils are later taught why people continue to live near these hazards despite the risks, and consider how monitoring, prediction and protection can mitigate their effects.
This package includes all of the teaching and learning resources required to teach this 4-5 WEEK topic. The bundle includes a detailed and engaging power point for each of the lessons, as well as supporting videos, activities and worksheets. Homework tasks and differentiated support is provided for pupils of varying abilities. The package firstly investgates drainage basins and their characteristics. River processes are covers in detail; as well as how these processes create features of the upper, middle and lower stages. Waterfalls, gourges and interlocking spurs, meanders, oxbow lakes, levees and floodplains are the examples included. The scheme then looks into the hydrological cycle in attempt to explain the factors effcting flood risk. Hydrographs are analysed and linked to environmental characteristics. Pupils use a case study to learn the effects of river flooding. The concepts of hard and soft engineering is finally overviewed. Here pupils analysis the effectiveness of managmement stratergies .
