A four page PDF file of my hand written notes. Created by myself for my geography students in the former Soviet Republic of Georgia, who were unfamiliar with the IGCSE requirements, topic, and with English as a foreign language. Topics include types of tectonic plate, convection currents, plate boundaries, types of plate boundary, and collision plate margins.

A resource I created for students who want to understand more about the world. A PDF file, that covers:
- THE SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION of why the sea is salty (references to Isaac Newton, Christopher Wren, King of England, and Edmond Halley's 'continental weathering' theory. We then look at how the question was finally answered in 1979 during an expedition to the black smokers and hydrothermal vents on the Pacific Ocean floor).
- THE FOLKLORE EXPLANATION of why the sea is salty (references to the Vikings, Norse Mythology, Grotti's Song, the Orkney Islands of Scotland and North Atlantic Ocean, and the story of the ants and the friendly giant from the Philippines).
- Suggestions for follow up activities
The file could be broken into sections as a longer topic or workbook, or given as a stand alone project or introduction to a new topic. There are multiple elements that cross over for topics on Vikings, oceans, exploration, biology, geography, slavery, storytelling , folklore, cultural diversity, and as inspiration and scientists who overcame adversity. May be suitable for gifted younger learners, or for secondary school students, STEM clubs, or students with English as a foreign language.

In folklore the Krampus (half devil, half goat) would roam the streets on the eve of the 5th December looking for naughty children to punish. Sometimes he would carry a pile of birch twigs to beat them too. He might travel on is own, or with St Nicholas who had his own Feast and festival on the 6th December where good children were celebrated. Krampusnacht is still celebrated in some European countries today.
Print out and colour in this sheet to explore Christmas and Christmas traditions around the world.

I drew this snail at the request of my students who love to colour in as part of their lessons. Used for my session on minibeasts for Georgian children who had English as a foreign language and were used to a Soviet system of memorizing chunks of text from books rather than active learning or group work.

A collection of photos of a cat and her five ginger kittens that I was fostering for the RSPCA after they were abandoned. A useful resource for conversations about the life cycle, birth, death, pregnancy, and the things that we need if we keep pets. How do we keep them healthy? Also useful for discussions about genetics, why kittens have blue eyes, and how the kittens are ginger when their mum is a different colour. Or for talking about the pets we have ourselves or would like to have in the future. Ideal for primary school students, and students learning English as a foreign language.
