LESSON COVERS The evidence of and strategies for addressing the social and economic North South Divide. LESSON INVOLVES Starter involves adding economic data to a UK map. The primary teaching task requires students to note down key terms and numbers and then to watch a video do discover what those key terms mean in the context of a North South divide. The main task provides the students with timed slides (7 minutes each) with information about three strategies to address the North South divide: HS2, Enterprise Zones and LEPs (local enterprise partnerships) and are asked the record the information of the slides in specific ways according to target grade. Students then colour code the strategies to link it to the information learned earlier in the video, evaluating the strategies, matching them to specific issues. The final plenary uses a video. It has a bad word in it – my students can handle that but feel free to omit if wish! LESSON RESOURCES Videos are hyperlinked to the video screen shots. Simply put into slide show mode and then click on them. The lesson also includes a 5 minute “Review Previous Learning” task, as a revision tool - feel free to omit or adapt. Please review with any feedback or if you spot any weevils in the lesson :-)

Here are differentiated key word sheets for the below AQA units. Each word has a space for students to write definitions. AQA UNITS COVERED: (sheets are fully editable if you teach different units) PAPER 1: Natural Hazards – Living World – UK Physical Landscapes PAPER 2: Urban Issues and challenges – Economic World – Resource Management RESOURCE CODE: HA = HIGHER ABILITY, MA = MIDDLE ABILITY

LESSON COVERS: the causes (meteorological) and effects of the Boscastle flash flood LESSON INVOLVES: starts with a spot the difference activity, then shows a video of flood footage from which students have to note down effects (and knock on effects as a challenge). They then use a video and a differentiated selection of key words to write an explanation for why it happened (looking purely at weather conditions). They then practice the skills of annotation to music (you can modify this task however you wish - I play "Barbara Streisand" by Duck Sauce and get them to pass their annotation sheet on every time they hear the words "Barbara Streisand". I make sure they know who to pass to to create a whole class chain. They love it - it generates a lot of excitement and hurried writing - the song is hyperlinked to the text box). The lesson ends with a task menu for different skill sets. RESOURCES: there are sheets for the annotation task and an extra info sheet for the final demonstration task if student feel they need it. Please review with any feedback :-)

LESSON COVERS: historic and current causes of climate change, both natural and human LESSON INVOLVES: starts with a graph task identifying trends in climate, bulk of lesson involves students using a differentiated Fact Pack containing visual and written information on human and natural causes of climate change. At the end of the research task there is a review and do section where each cause can be summarised by students completing sentence starters and looking at a piece of evidence (this can be led to a greater or lesser extent by the teacher depending on class need). There lesson ends with a piece of written work where students have to back and debate either human or natural causes. RESOURCES: The fact pack includes two types of text boxes - one with simpler language and one with more complex (the key for each is on the task slide). The link to the video can be accessed by putting the powerpoint in slide show mode and clicking on the screen grab. There are also two versions of the causes template that can be used depending on ability - equally you can simply ask students to make notes in their books. Please review with any feedback :-)

LESSON COVERS: the definition of and difference between adaptation and mitigation and examples of how each in being employed in relation to climate change. LESSON INVOLVES: the main part of the lesson involves watching a selection of short videos or sections of hyperlinked videos. students make notes on a choice of two template sheets and categorise the video as an example of mitigation, adaptation, or both. Following this they choose a role from the COP21 meetings in Paris and write a speech using what they have learnt within the context of their role (prompts for what to include are on the screen). RESOURCES: all the videos are hyperlinked, to access them put the powerpoint in slide show mode and click on the screen grabs. Some videos have a note underneath saying which parts of the video to watch (if they are too long). Pre-teach the term "desalinisation" before showing the desalinisation video. The sheets the students can use to make notes are differentiated - the blank venn diagram is for more able students. Please review with any feedback :-)
