Hello. My methodology for lesson planning consists of three key concepts; Simplicity for the teacher - I aim to plan lessons that are paper-resource light. Clarity of understanding for the student - I aim to plan lessons that are clear in their sequencing. Professional appearance - I aim to plan lessons that are designed for students rather than the board room. I teach my lessons successfully and with enjoyment, but not every teacher is the same. I always appreciate constructive feedback :-)

China Three Gorges Dam - Geography

(0)
LESSON COVERS: the location of the dam, how a dam works, the advantages and disadvantages of the dam and how it may impacts people and the environment. LESSON INVOLVES: students first generate questions for themselves about the dam which they then come back to answer later. The dam is then located by slowly zooming in on google earth (students to identify when they can see it). There is a video to make notes from on how a dam works, then a video for students to collect advantages and disadvantages (each video is hyperlinked if you click on the screen grab once in slide show mode). Students then read people profiles and plot each person on a graph to show how they are effected by the dam (differentiated). The final task is to write a letter as the president to the dam designer arguing for or against the dam's construction in the first place. RESOURCES There is an extra information sheet for any students wanting ore information. Please review with any feedback :-)

Flash Flood case study Boscastle - Geography

(0)
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 :-)

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 :-)
