This lesson is part of a series of lessons that can be bought as a bundle. In this lesson the students are asked to think first about how a range of biotic and abiotic factors in the rainforest are interdependent. Some are modelled for the students, who will need to add to the diagram. Next the students are required to locate the Peruvian Amazon and note down some facts about it, as background information to their case study. Next the students are asked to complete a top and tail activity to identify the value of the rainforests to humans. The main activity of the lesson involves the students working in small groups to interpret a range of images about 4 threats to biodiversity (gas production, oil production, gold mining and forest clearance for farm land) before independently writing their own PEE paragraphs. There is a writing frame and set of connectives to help the students to structure their written work if they need it. Finally there is a mark scheme to allow the students/teach to assess the students work.

This lesson introduces the students to a charity - Riders for Health who have tried to improve health care provision in Kenya. It contains a video clips, story telling activities, with character cards. There are note taking sheets and discussion activities. This is a really good case study of an affective aid project in Kenya.

Starter: river map quiz Main: reading photos and maps to identify the characteristics of the different courses of a river. Note taking and photo/map information sheets included. Plenary: which course quiz - with answers.

This is a carousel activity consisting of 7 activities that can be put together in a booklet and answer sheets for each activity. At each of the 7 stations place a question sheet and the answer sheet for the previous station. Pupils should spend 5 minutes at each station then go on to the next station and mark and grade their work. Repeat for next 6 stations. this tasks gets pupils to identify precisely gaps in their knowledge and puts the onus on the students during revision, rather than the teacher.

I designed this lesson to make teaching a complicated landform more accessible. there are lots of different activities, which gradually build up the students understanding, to the point that able they are able to write their own explanation. The lesson includes a number of images and maps to develop a sense of place. There is also an atlas maps skills homework activity included in the lesson and a separate rift valley homework answer sheet to help give feedback to the students.

These are 3 card sorts, designed to make it easy for students to learn factual information to use in their answers. These can be made into card sorts and solved. Once pupils are familiar with them they can also be given blank grids and asked to fill them in from memory. Card sort 1- coasts case studies (Dubai, Abbotts Hall Farm, Papa Stour and Farewell Spit) Card sort 2 - tectonics and coastal landform facts, to be used in landform explanation questions Card sort 3 - tectonics case studies (Mt Pinatubo, Mt Ontake, Haiti, Japanese tsunami)

This is a partially completed revision booklet for the legacy AQA spec course. It covers the Tectonics and Ecosystems topics. I usually get the students to complete these as they go along so they have a set of revision notes at the end of the course.

This booklet contains 7 varied homework activities to complement a scheme of work related to tectonics. The aims and instructions of each tasks are clearly laid out at the start of the task. At the end there is space for assessment and WWW and EBI comments.

This lesson is deigned to equip the pupils with the skills to be able to attempt any landform explanation successfully. They will gain an appreciation of what is required to produce a detailed landform answer and apply these skills to explaining how waterfalls and gorges are formed. A landform mark scheme is included, which they can apply to some modelled answers, giving feedback. All worksheets required by students are included.

In this lesson pupils decide where to locate a new power station: Sellafield, Hinkley Point or Woodgate, Birmingham. They are given a variety of maps and data in order to do this. When they have decided they write a letter (using a writing frame) to the government justifying their choices. There is also a mark scheme to accompany this. At the end of the lesson it is revealed that Hinkley Point has been chosen by the government. the students are given a variety of information about the new power station to interpret as a homework task.

This resource includes two fieldwork booklets that have been used for tourism fieldwork in Grasmere. the activities can be easily adjusted to suit any tourist honeypot. They include amongst other fieldwork traffic counts, physical and human attractions, car park surveys, environmental impact assessments

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 booklet includes a wide range of fieldwork based on the Cumbrian coast, that can be adapted for use in any area. Fieldwork techniques include; beach profiles, groyne heights, field sketching, wave counts and defence analysis.

Included are a range of urban fieldwork data collection sheets that can easily be used in any urban environment. They include index of decay, housing density, housing age, counter-urbanisation.
