An atlas based lesson to develop the use of an atlas for finding information.
The lesson was created for a high abiity year 7 set and I have therefore also attached an atlas challenge for lower ability/younger groups.
This is a lesson I did for year 6's during transition week to help develop atlas skills and knowledge of places.
Pupils used the atlas to create a fact file on the country of their choice on the back of the balloon outline. They then drew the flag on the balloon.
Once complete they cut them out and hung them on a 'washing line&' in alphabetical order. This required them to look at the factfile to find out the country represented by each flag.
Powerpoint and card sort on the different types of pollution.
This was designed for a Set 3 group with a wide range of abilities (right from 2a to 5c) and they loved the Simpson theme throughout the lesson.
The card sort was given to the pupils as just the images, types of pollution and the sources then as the higher ability completed it they were given the effects to sort.
The lower ability students were given very simple effect cards with two or three words on each but I'm unable to find that document to add to the resource
Lesson 1 - What is Brazil like?
Lesson 2 - Main physical features of Brazil
Lesson 3 - Climate of Brazil
Lesson 4 - Ecosystems of Brazil
