This could run over 2-3 lessons. Students focus on annotating the booklet - use the question sheet to help prompt discussion. Other activities to help approach the booklet includes paired and group work. This DME is based on the SAMs but with a Rio focus with information taken from Simon Ross textbook. Includes SAMs mark scheme and sentence starters for students. No other resources required. Enjoy. (I have a copy of the booklet in Spanish if anyone requires - if you have purchased this resource, please message me for a free copy).

You need Hodder 3rd edition textbook. Explanation notes under slides.

Volcanic hazards. Give students a copy of the diagram and get them to annotate. Hazards on powerpoint diagram are hyperlinked. Use geo factsheet to add further details. Amazing Pompeii animation at end to check understanding by spotting the hazards. Homework is to look at different types of volcanoes.

Third lesson thrown together. A market-place activity recapping layers of the Earth and the 4 reasons behind plate movement.

Lesson 2 Start off with word mat... Chalk and talk, get students to make notes, ask questions - see notes under slides Finish with word mat and crossword *Crossword and animations from the Geological Society Hw To create a detailed revision resource using the notes from today's lesson.

Good as a first lesson to see what they know or a revision lesson. The lesson is essentially the challenge which runs all lesson. Photocopy the challenge and the points sheet. Do not read through with class, let them crack on with it. Where it says choose appropriate map, have A3 photocopies of American and European world maps to choose from. Follow up with WWW/EBI (or NDT). Homework to annotate proper copies of tectonic maps.

Quiz on Rivers. Fun times ahead. Round 1 missing two questions. Title bit misleading as nothing on floods. Uploaded in a rush!

*This is not examiner endorsed/approved* When going through a recent practice exam with yr10, these are the notes I made on the different types of question that came up. This is so they can approach another exam paper in the same way using the same crib sheet. There are examples of poor and good answers on there and general advice. This is a working document and there are some types of questions which have not been covered such as 'Compare'.

After discussing the reasons, this task (which has higher- and lower-attaining student versions) can be used to help students explain. The task is to help students practice clear explanations in their geography writing. This template could be applied to other topics.

Can be used to recap the water/hydrological cycle. Aimed at KS4 but could be used with other years as well.

I used a triple lesson to do this on one day. Students split into 4 groups as shown on the plan - 2 hours to prepare their exhibits - suggestions on the sheets. I prepared each group with a pack of information and other useful information sheets to help them with their topic. In the third lesson, staff came round to experience their museum and we turned up heating, sprayed them with water and played sounds. The powerpoint is what they viewed first before touring the 'museum&'.

These are my photos so there are no copyright issues. Perfect for use in your cold environments lessons. Many glacial features shown.
