COASTAL LANDSCAPES SDME

(0)
40 mark SDME assessment in the form of a Powerpoint with associated resources Background: Why does Holderness suffer from severe coastal erosion? What are the advantages and disadvantages of halting erosion? Options: Why has hard engineering used to defend Hornsea? Why is soft engineering gaining popularity? Decision: Do nothing, retreat the line, hold the line or advance the line

Landscapes 3 "COMING IN FROM THE COLD"

Powerpoint looking at the effect of glaciers on the UK's landscapes Starter: Ben Nevis as a modern day example of a cold British landscape. Differentiated questions about the formation of u-shaped valleys Main activities: step-by-step annotated sketch of Malham's limestone landscape. Powerpoint slides explain how the pavement, dry valleys and the Cove were formed Plenary: looks at how the limestone of Malham became temporarily impervious due to rainwater saturation (and the subsequent short-lived waterfall)

Tectonics 3: "LAVA WILL TEAR US APART AGAIN"

(0)
Powerpoint and worksheets covering constructive plate boundaries, collision zones and volcanic hot spots. Starter is an odd-one-out game involving keywords and place names linked to tectonics. Constructive margins focuses on the Galapagos Islands (Nazca and Cocos Plates) where pupils draw a cross section of the boundary then use clues to annotate key features. Hot spots and magma plumes are then introduced, linking to the African Rift Valley as a land-based plate boundary above a magma plume. A half-time Plenary looks at the importance of the Rift Valley to human evolution. Then pupils find the answers to questions about the San Andreas Fault through a comprehension exercise and report back to the class. The final piece of work is an A3 worksheet which combines constructive, destructive and collision boundaries. Pairs of pupils try to remember as much as they can by summarising their recent learning. The Plenary returns to the Galapagos and the islands' importance in Darwin's Theory of Evolution. Includes video links and differentiated questions. Enough for two lessons...

Powerpoint looking at the Upper Stage of the River Tay Starter: Pupils use maps to discuss the links between the location of Britain’s rivers, patterns of landscape and patterns of precipitation Main activities: video link introducing the Upper Stage of the Tay Carousel of activities about erosion types (memorisation), forestry (exam-style questions), features of upland valleys (SPAG), hill sheep (exam-style question), waterfalls (use mystery clues to annotate sequence of diagrams) and HEP (exam-style questions) Second lesson used for class discussions to recap learning using slides and videos Class debate on the sustainability of forestry, sheep farming and HEP in the Tay Valley Differentiated questions about the features found in the Upper Stage Plenary: simple living graph of the deforestation of Britain over the past 1,000 years Enough for two lessons

Powerpoint looking at the skill of constructing cross-sections from contour lines Starter: recap of the formation of v-shaped valleys (including video link) Main activities: step-by-step slides taking pupils through how to construct a labelled cross-section of the Upper Stage of the River Tay Analysis of a photo of the Middle Stage of the River Tay to compare human and physical features and then to compare those with a photo of the Upper Stage Pupils then construct their own cross-section of the Middle Stage Differentiated questions comparing the cross-sections of the three river stages (the Upper Stage is already completed for them) Plenary: pupils have to look for clues in photos of a completely different river (the Wisla in Poland) to decide in which stages they were taken

Landscapes 4 "WEATHERING HEIGHTS"

(0)
Powerpoint looking at the effect of weathering on the UK's landscapes Starter: Pupils discuss what might have damaged various materials shown in photos Main activities: video links, discussion and annotation of diagrams to show sequence of freeze-thaw (frost shatter) and exfoliation (onion skin) weathering Slides about chemical and biological weathering (for note taking) Differentiated questions to explain how weathering has affected the chalk landscape of The Seven Sisters (East Sussex, Southern England) Plenary: video links recapping the four types of weathering covered in the lesson

First Powerpoint in a series looking at the River Tay (Britain's largest river by discharge) Starter: A comparison of the Tay with the Severn and the Thames and using maps to locate the Tay Main activities: sketch of a typical river basin, then annotate to show main features (eg tributary, confluence, source, mouth) Graphing activity to construct the long profile of the Tay (including locating the three stages of the river) Worksheet and mystery clues comparing the Upper and Lower Stages of the Tay with Bradshaw's River Model Differentiated questions comparing the Upper and Lower Stages of the Tay Valley Plenary: video link recapping the long profile of a river

Powerpoint looking at the formation of meanders and oxbow lakes in the Middle Stage of the River Tay Starter: sketch and match definitions of four types of transportation Main activities: step-by-step slides taking pupils through the formation of meanders and oxbow lakes. Each pupil is given a fact about the processes involved. Sketches are made of meanders in different stages then pupils use their clues to teach the rest of the class about what is happening so they can label their diagrams. Also includes some photo analysis of river valleys in the real world Second part gets pupils to draw and label a cross-section of an asymmetrical meander using width, depth and velocity data Differentiated question: 1-3: Describe how a river channel changes from one side of a meander to the other; 4-6: Explain how a meander can become an oxbow lake over time; 7-9: Explain how meanders and oxbow lakes can be both useful and cause problems for humans Plenary: pupils recap learning by describing and explaining features seen in a series of satellite photos showing a meander turning into an oxbow over time

Powerpoint and worksheets introducing the concept of distinctive landscapes Two main activities: assessment of five landscape photos using description (looking for evidence of physical, human and transitory features) followed by bilpolar evaluations of two further landscapes Differentiated question: 1-3: Describe the main features of the landscape where you live 4-6: Explain the differences between urban and rural landscapes in the UK 7-9: Explain how human and physical features interact to form a named UK landscape Plenary gets pupils to discuss the most beautiful landscapes they have seen locally, nationally and internationally Includes video link ('Beautiful Britain')

Case Study: The 2015 Nepal Earthquake One Powerpoint but with enough detail for two or three lessons Starter looks at possible advantages and disadvantages of Nepal's geography when it comes to dealing with earthquakes Main body of the work is divided into: LOCATION: map skills exercise CAUSES: plate tectonics, India/Eurasia collision zone; graphing of historic data to look for tectonic patterns; shallow depth earthquakes below the Himalayas EFFECTS: mapping proportional circles to show aftershocks; choropleth mapping exercise to show deaths by district; discussion of social, economic and environmental effects which are then analysed using an A3 worksheet to link and pairs of effects SOLUTIONS: analysis of the usefulness of accepting foreign aid; grid worksheet to assess the sustainability of alternative earthquake proofing (car tyres, plastic bottles, straw and bamboo!) PLENARY: how was Mount Everest affected by the 2015 earthquake? Includes several resources, differentiated questions and links to internet media
