Firstly, the students are introduced to the key terminology relating to water extraction. Next, students will comprehend a newspaper article to evaluate the impacts of water extraction from the aquifer surrounding Beijing. After that the students will study surface extraction on the Tigris and Euphrates and convert this information into a mind map. T consolidate students are given an examination question and asked to produce presentations on one element of the question, using the case studies. The students can then answer the question for homework or in class. All resources are included at the end of the PowerPoint.

The lesson starts by asking the students to recall and classify the inputs, outputs, processes and stores of the carbon cycle. Next the students are asked to produce a diagram of the carbon cycle and then to adjust it to reflect the carbon cycle in the Arctic Tundra. After that students are given specific information on the changes and asked to annotate these onto a new diagram of the carbon cycle. Finally the students are asked to compare the carbon cycle in the rainforest to the tundra, including specific information.

Firstly, students are introduced via photos to the causes of permafrost melting in the Tundra. Next the students are given 4-5 impacts and asked to undertake research into these impacts, specifically focusing on the Prudhoe Bay. They are required to explain these, using factual information and then to annotate their findings onto a diagram. Finally, students are asked to evaluate whether the impacts of melting permafrost have a bigger impact on the water or carbon cycle, justifying their explanation.

This lesson starts with an opportunity to revise ecosystems. Students are tested on climate data, photographs and ecosystems and food webs associated with different ecosystems. Next the students are introduced to the Polar, Ferrel and Haley cells, their discovery and characteristics. Next students should take notes on the weather associated with high and low pressure. After that the students are given climate graphs from around the globe and by looking at the rainfall data are asked to decided if there is high or low pressure. They then use their atlases to find out the latitude, which they label on a globe (answers provided). Finally, they are introduced to the weather between 30oN and S of the equator around the ITCZ and are asked to describe and then explain the weather that occurs (answers provided). All resources are included at the end of the PowerPoint.

This is the first in a series of lessons about biomes, available as a bundle. The lesson introduces students to the concept of ecosystems that occur at different scales. Students are asked to classify ecosystems of different scales. They are then introduced to abiotic and biotic factors. Biomes are located globally and students are introduced to the different types of biome. Students are then required to used graphical skills to draw and interpret graphs, showing temperature ranges and total rainfall for a range of biomes. The lesson is linked to an examination question and mark scheme and to finish there is a quiz with answers to test what the students have learned. Resources are included at the end of the PowerPoint.

This lesson was designed for the new A2 syllabus. It asks students to recall the water cycle from GCSE and add more sophisticated terms required at A level. It includes a glossary with answers and diagrams of the water cycle. The pupils are then required to classify parts of the cycle into inputs, outputs, processes and flows (answers included). They can follow up this with a classification card sort activity, with answers. All resources / hand-outs are included within the lesson PowerPoint.

This lesson is designed for the new A2 syllabus. this lesson includes a water cycle card sort, where pupils classify the water cycle into stores, flows, inputs and outputs. It then goes onto define condensation, before outlining the characteristics of different cloud types. It has a revision test to review the students learning on the water cycle, clouds and the importance of water to maintaining life on earth. Answers to all activities are included and all worksheets/ hand-outs are within the lesson PowerPoint.

This lesson is designed to be used with the new A2 syllabus. This lesson includes: Why water is important in supporting life on our planet. The use of water by flora, fauna and people. The size of stores and flows in the water cycle. Within the lesson are all the worksheets that the pupils will need. there is also a recap activity with answers for you to display on the whiteboard.

This is a lovely decision making exercise. there are 3 plans to develop the rainforest in Madagascar. pupils have to outline each scheme before designing criteria to judge the schemes on. Finally they need to write a paragraph to justify their choice of scheme and rejection of other schemes. There is a writing frame to support this. The plenary asks the pupils to consider and develop a compromise.

Students are introduced to the threats to the Amazon rainforest before being introduced to a sustainable development scheme- the Central Amazonian Conservation Complex. Students take notes from the worksheet in order to identify what happens in each zone. The plenary is an opinion line evaluating the success of the scheme.

This lesson uses diagrams and photos to allow students to apply their knowledge of weathering, erosion and mass movement. There is a writing frame to support students in explaining how stumps are formed and a mark scheme for teach / peer / self assessment. The plenary consists of an OS map quiz with answers, using Pembroke maps.

This lesson starts with a coasts taboo game to reinforce coastal terminology.
