This is a lesson taken from a year 7 scheme of work entitled 'Around the World' - an introductory scheme of work to the subject of geography. Each lesson has a particular skill focus with this lesson's focus being 'use of data' as pupils are required to produce a choropleth map for Asia's population statistics. The main task has been differentiated and the worksheet has two versions- one for high ability learners and another for low and middle ability. Extenstion tasks also feature throughout to stretch and challenge. The lesson also features plenty of discussion opportunities and explicit progress checks throughout. Could be easily adapted for year 8 and even beyond to KS4.

This serves as an introductory lesson for key stage 3. The theme of the lesson is 'What is Geography' and includes an analysis of the three different types of geography; human, environmental and physical. A very engaging introductory lesson to our wonderful subject of Geography!

A KS3 lesson taken from a weather SOW. This lesson focuses on the features of a climate graph and constructing them. Pupils are required to construct 1 climate graph from 5 potential mystery locations (all data provided) before using investigation to work out where in the world their mystery location is representing. Resources also include an extension sheet for HA learners.

Another lesson extracted from my weather scheme of work. The lesson focuses on the water cycle and the key terms associated with this cycle. The lesson progresses to explore the key processes of the cycle and then the three different types of rainfall with 2 worksheets to consolidate learning of both the water cycle (and key terms) and the different types of rainfall. The worksheets (main tasks) are cleary differentiated with two different versions avaibale in each worksheet (high & middle ability and lower ability) along with extension tasks throughout the powerpoint. Ample discussion opportunities along with short, sharp tasks to engage, stretch and challenge. Enjoy!

This is a lesson extracted from my KS3 Weather SOW with a focus on extreme weather systems. It was adapted in preparation for a 'Mocksted' Inspection whereby it received very pleasing feedback. The lesson itself is fast paced with a focus on smaller, student led activities with clear differentiation opportunities (including extension tasks for HA learners) and explicit progress checks throughout. A dynamic lesson with a range of resources including a pre-prepared worksheet and YouTube hyperlinks. Enjoy!
