Introducing a basic GIS (Nat Geo Mapmaker). The lesson is from a Y7 introduction to Geography skill-based unit. It is fully resourced with a range of engaging activities to introduce pupils to the subject and its core skills. You will need access to an ICT suite for pupils to fully engage with the second half of this lesson. The lesson is from a Y7 introduction to Geography skill-based unit. It is fully resourced with a range of engaging activities to introduce pupils to the subject and its core skills.

The lesson uses images, maps and climate graphs to examine the different biomes in the Middle East and examines some of the adaptation of flora and fauna. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

A lesson examining the political geography of the Middle East. Pupils use maps and atlases to develop locational knowledge. The second page of the map included in this resources is related to Lesson 2 in this unit. The worksheet is not poorly formatted, by the way - TES Resources has jumbled the photo but the worksheet is as it should be, a correctly formatted Word document. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding.

The third lesson in a 13-lesson KS3 Geography unit about Endangered Species. All lessons are fully resourced with a range of engaging activities. This lesson introduces the history of extinction on Earth and the concept of ‘mass extinctions events’.

**Updated to include missing PPT ** The third lesson in our Y9 Africa unit, this lesson supports pupils to understand the complex factors that have affected Africa’s social and economic development. It includes information about Africa’s sucessful prehistory and the challenges of sharing technology and trade longitudonally rather than laterally across the planet, then examines the impact of the slave trade in encourging African kingdoms to become dependent upon a single commodity (slaves) which was then outlawed, the subsequent decline in development and vulnerability to colonialisation as a result. It then examines the challenges of postcolonial Africa and the impacts these have had on development.

This is a Y6 Welcome Day (Induction Day) secondary school lesson. It introduces students to Geography at secondary school. Beginning with basic map/flag identification to get the children involved, the lesson moves on to explain that we will study those things and some of the content they have studied in primary school. However, it goes on to explain that at secondary school we look at more complex geography. It introduces some of the development indicators and there is a group-based worksheet task (Publisher and PDF provided) to link definitions, icons and facts about each indicator. Then pupils learn about the key skill of constructing chains of reasoning by linking taxes to education and jobs (and then life expectancy). It finishes with a fun game of Blockbusters.

The fourth lesson in the Y9 Africa unit, this lesson introduces pupils to the savanna biome and its climate and adaptations. It focussing on the Sahel region of Africa and how it was traditionally used by humans (nomadic farming) and why this was sustainable.

The tenth lesson in the Africa unit focuses on water management in an international context, with the case study of the GERD in Ethiopia and the implications for Sudan and Egypt. It includes a short DME on how to manage the situation.

Cover work for Geography, either KS3 or KS4. You will need to supply atlases (or a map on a PPT to be projected) and then pupils simply work through the tasks. Could not be easier - no more complaints from supply teachers or cover supervisors and no mores scratching aroundf at 7am when you are i ll - just set the worksheet and forget about it.

This is part of a fully resourced scheme of work for the Eduqas GCSE (9-1) Geography specification, although it is easily adaptable for other specifications. Each lesson has all materials provided (with YouTube links) and is ready to teach out-of-the-box. This lesson introduces the concept of trade and the multitude of keywords associated with it. It then moves on to examine the some of the impacts of trade upon development using cocoa as an example. The lesson introduces the UK, Vietnam and Kenya as the HIC/NIC/LIC to be used for the remainder of this unit.

The seventh lesson in a 13-lesson KS3 Geography unit about Endangered Species. All lessons are fully resourced with a range of engaging activities. This lesson leads on from the previous lesson (production of palm oil) the further examine the threats to orangutans. It also covers a range of other threats to this species.

This lesson revises ‘Rivers’ and ‘Water Resources’ aspects of KS3 by examining the issue of river management in Turkey and Syria and its impacts on Iraq. The question of how this may lead to conflict in the future is discussed. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

13 rounds of flags, maps, capital buildings, country shapes, former flags, guess the ocean, landmarks, etc. An easy way to kill an hour! Animated answer slides included. Update - error where the leader of North Korea was shown as the leader of China has now been amended.

The fifth lesson in the Y9 Africa unit, this lesson leads pupils to understand how rainfall anomalies in the mid 20th century led to increased agricultural activity and population in the Sahel and the subsequent challenges this - and lower rainfall patterns - have caused that threaten the biome in the area (and the implications for humans)

This lesson focuses on glaciers as a system and their inputs, outputs and processes. Pupils thus examine the processes involved, such as ablation, accumultation, meltwater, erosion, transportation, etc. Pupils then look at the landforms created by glaciers - Arete, corrie, pyramidal peak, etc.

The final lesson of the Y9 Africa unit supports pupils to understand how Africa’s youthful population, increasing life expectancy and health levels and education standards put Africa in a prime position to work with MNCs to achieve export-led development. It includes a significant guided DME (increasing development in Tanzania) to introduce pupils to Paper 2 at GCSE.

Intended forY9, this is a fully-resourced synoptic unit about international relations designed to support pupils as they move towards GCSE Geography. The unit examines international relations and the factors that affect these, superpowers, alliances, trade, hard- and soft-power, Belt and Road Initiative/debt-trap diplomacy, the causes, consequences and solutions of war and the role and efficacy of the UN. There is an optional final series of lessons to allow pupils to watch Hotel Rwanda to support their learning and provide a but of light relief at the very end of the year - the film is not provided and you should be sure to examine the accompanying PowerPoint that explains the premise to pupils and also states the exact time where the “N” word is used in the film so you can mute it. The PowerPoint introduces the complex background to the Rwandan genocide and provides guidance for teachers on leading learning through this film. This film is certified as a ‘12’. Do not show it to younger or more vulnerable children.
