An 8 page revision booklet linked to the Specification which guides students through the key points of knowledge required for the Weather and Climate Change part of the qualification as part of Paper 1. Can be used for any case study used. Thank you for looking.

This is a writing frame/template for a 9-mark Evaluate question for AQA GCSE Geography. I am trialling these with my GCSE students. They are probably not perfect but I’ve tried to break it down as much as possible for students struggling with longer answers and higher-order command words. This should be printed out on A3, folded in half to make an A4 booklet, with each page on one side. The format of how this works: pg1 - Walkthrough - I’ve really tried to take a step-by-step guide (and for your weakest students they should only ever use this perhaps?) pg2 - Template - This is where it’s more of a compartmentalised layout so they can see it’s in 4 sections for Evaluate - I suggest when they have mastered the Walkthrough version, that they go straight to the Template Version. pg3 - Exam Answer - so how they would see it in the exam pg4 - Improved answer - I’ve put on a levels table in student speak and hen you’ve marked it, they have to find evidence of what you mean and fill in last column. Then there is space for them to make improvements to ONE section of their answer. Thanks for looking and hope you found this useful to you and your students. Good luck with your results! I also have templates/writing frames for 9-mark Assess and 6-mark Assess and Explain. These also come as a bundle.

This is the fifth (and penultimate) lesson of Enquiry Question 1 of the carbon and energy unit. This lesson takes students through the importance of plants, NPP and differing climates. This is essentially chalk and talk as I found the topic matter somewhat complex and consulted a biology teacher in the school who talked me through a lot of the concepts. The Independent Study Task looks at soil health. The Hodder flag textbook is needed for this lesson. Thank you for looking.

Thank you for looking.

The first lesson of Enquiry Question 1 of the carbon and energy unit. In this, students learn the idea of what carbon is and what the carbon cycle is. There is some information in this lesson from the Hodder flag textbook. Recommended background reading (for teacher and students): http://jcourtneywhite.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/The_Story_of_Carbon.pdf Challenges the idea that carbon is seen as something ‘bad’ in the media when actually it’s very important! Thank you for looking.

There are lots of different ones on TES but I thought I would add my contribution to geography level descriptors. Each level is a mountain with skills on how to reach the peak. It's a bit cheesy.

Used for students to stand under when considering the future of Antarctica. The lesson is on the Discovering Antarctica website, with Sydney Suit and Laura Leaf.

This argumentative writing task should be used after having studied the validity of the Brandt Line (I used different maps from worldmapper website to help with this). It is aimed to help all abilities of Year 9 students.
