Learning outcomes: Define the term NEE and give examples. Rank and justify the improvements you would make to an LIC. Investigate an African NEE country. Each time you do one, you refer back to it via AFL with students Strong focus on command words as these will be in exam questions (for young or older students to be aware of the meaning of these) Scenario based thinking on own. Pair work on same scenario but having to agree on one decision together. Feedback to class Learning Social/ Economic/ Environmental/ Political. Questions/ prompts per section to help students answer or categorise properly. Do an example together. Model it (especially if they are younger or have needs, otherwise it is already displayed on board) Students read information and put them into the correct categories (10 minutes). AFL and check whole room progress. I added additional 3 minutes with their goal to have one thing per box as 2-3 boxes were mainly done. Challenge included if needed. Random sharing. Depending on your student you can allow them to share any box, or you choose a box (but lower ability/ SEND may not have the box you want). Plenary for students to recheck the intentions and discuss if they met them. This shows their progress and understanding. Handouts available. SEEP in colour or black and white. Information sheet in colour, and shared handouts to have them exposed to graphs, tables and maps, and to help their partner as the task may be difficult for some.

Feedback to class (table or notes - they were much faster with just making notes) - chose 1 per animal - visualiser for recognition and rewards Plenary - which one to save? Hands up voting.

Learning English in real life scenarios. Adapted for in person teaching, online teaching, and telephone teaching. All worksheets, activities and powerpoints for each section are included and editable if needed. This book has been widely used for learning languages in schools. Translated in Korean (which you can remove or adjust to another language) For example, teaching Italian with English translations. The translations are for students to be able to self-study and understand, with or without the help of their parents or teachers. It allows them independence if you decide that yo want them to do the work beforehand, or with you, or as homework. The page numbers make it easily referenced especially when you are teaching remotely. I usually changed 10. into competitive learning games as they were more interested.

A full 1 hour lesson. Lesson plan refers to 50 minutes but it is easily 1 hour or more depending on how much time you want to provide. I included this because you can understand each part. All sensitive information is removed. I have also included a section for a Plan B, in case the class does not go to plan. A brief starter about each season to assess their prior knowledge and the importance of knowing this information. E.g. Would you wear a warm coat in the summer? A merry-go-round activity with stations. This saves lots on resources as you only need 6 sheets. Depending on the level of your class, you can remove more information, and remove the bold font as hints. Depending on your student’s knowledge, you may want to explain some things first or change some information. For example, food chains/ webs.

These are designed for 1hour. 3 slightly different versions depending on your resources/ class behaviour/ student abilities. You can mix them up. There are some Pokemon themed sections which you can remove/ alter. All materials and helpsheets included. Lesson plans are not included due to confidential data. Gapfill also included for students to try answers. In seats, short task together, short independent task building towards main independent task. Pair work. Similar to a treasure hunt but using words, to decode a secret word. Main activity is fun: linking into science, survival in real life using minimal items such as a leaf or a puddle etc. Depending on which resources you want to use and environment, this can be adapted. In this scenario, it’s in the classroom so it uses a bowl. There are other ways of making a compass but this is the minimal as you want magnetic north to address the misconceptions that North is always in front of you like the maps say. If you happen to not have materials/ or it’s being used by the science department/ don’t have any at home or the budget… you can skip the making compass section and show with your compass/ your phone/ provide compasses (depending on resources). The main activity involves a team game where they have to the teacher from A to B using the classroom. For behaviour control, they can estimate the number of steps (assuming they have also not learnt scale/ distance yet), or if you have a behaved class you can allow one student per team to leave their seat to count steps (limits to about 6 students out their seats at a time for classroom management). The purpose of the lesson is compass directions so the other factors are not important in this class. Future classes will have these skills combined. 2 and 3 looks more into real-life survival skills and involves team activities. There are also extras included depending on the class speed/ lesson time. If you have a break in classes, you can use it to prepare materials/ set up teams to save time. My students know how to move the tables, who’s in their teams, who is the team leader for collecting items (classroom management), and complete it within 30 seconds with materials. You must model it well if it is your first time with such activities.

Recap of skills. An exciting story to follow (promotes literacy). Adaptable between year 7 to older by changing the story words. Map is adaptable to change to your town/ school if you wanted. TEA answer with gapfill to scaffold. Concept used over a small scale. Also available as a large scale (assuming it is a practice) to show Ebola as a real life case study. All adaptable.

Reading story Literacy based. Geographical skill based. Field sketch. Differentiated (lots of options) in gap fill and sketch options

Engaging lesson about the one child policy Depending on your class you can adapt the PPT. The lower and higher ability materials are already available (it’s set on level 3 and 4) Includes opinion line at start and end of lesson. Can be done in classroom on in their books.
