A 57 page revision guide designed for OCR A, paper 3 (Skills, Statistics & Fieldwork). Areas covered are: Grid References. Scale. Distance. Height. Fieldwork. Statistics. Q & A analysis. Synoptic Q & A. It differs from a conventional guide because on each page it provides students with actual tasks to complete. E.g. sorting, linking, drawing, SPaG, spot the mistakes etc. At the back there are dozens of questions that pupils can use the guide to help answer. The 2 statistic pages were printed on A3, laminated & provided to the pupils as last minute revision, whilst they were waiting to go into the exam hall. I printed lots off in colour and charged students £2 as well as providing them with a copy on disc. Some students just wanted a free disc copy & printed it at home. Please see my other guides. Although designed for OCR, most of the content is the same for other exam boards and it is very easily amended. This took dozens of hours to create and will be an superb time save resource that will really support students of all ability.

A simple activity that allows students to demonstrate understanding of some of the key areas of the unit by drawing.

A resource that includes all of the key information related to the energy, population, resources and industry in India. I had my pupils create a mindmap about each key heading. Promotes independent work and allows the teacher to support students as they work. I printed this on A3 & in colour & laminated them. This way they can be kept & used for many years.

A 37 page revision guide for OCR GCSE Geography. Has command word breakdown & exemplar answer sections along with higher level detail needed for longer answer success. Lots of detail to allow pupils to access the learning needed for the more complex and longer mark questions. Although created for OCR A & B, it can easily be amended for Edexcel & AQA. I used it as a revision tool before the mock & final examinations.

All the resources needed to deliver a fantastic lesson about how geography helped to sink the Titanic. My kids love this one. Students use the all info sheet to access the learning. This provides them with all of the information needed. They then complete the A3 mindmap. There is a mini sorting activity that enables pupils understanding to be tested (once the mindmap is complete). I have included a simple teacher feedback sheet too. To save time in marking. This is a really fun & engaging lesson that the kids love doing. This is a series of lessons that takes roughly 4 or 5 to complete.

A great activity that uses the middle earth lord of the rings & hobbit base map to allow students to firstly describe a pre-plotted journey and then to create their own journey. The journey is divided up into kilometer sections to make understanding scale more straight forward. Task includes a success criteria that allows pupils to calculate their success.

A lesson on the human activity on rivers. Flood defence & causes. Suitable for all age groups and specifications. Resources really allow for independent learning and provide all of the ingredients needed for all abilities of students to access the learning. It also has a quick GCSE style test that puts learning into context. 2 to 3 lessons worth of content.

A great lesson that enables students to create a tracing paper (GIS) overlay that identifies areas that are prone to flooding. It works bes by photocopying onto tracing paper. This can easily be done by changing the settings on the photocopier.

Homework ideas for the GCSE AQA geography specification. They include QR codes that link to on-line resources. These tasks require little to no marking, are fun and engaging and support the development of cultural capital in terms of creating great global citizens.

A bank of low stakes tests that relate to Paper 1 (Physical environment) for AQA GCSE geography. These can easily be edited to link to your current schemes of learning, but are a fantastic starting point.

A wide range of home-learning activities that can be used across a range of year groups. These asks are designed to be fun and engaging and require very little or no marking. These activities include QR codes that link to video clips and are activities that will support the development of well-rounded global citizens.

All resources needed to teach kids how material is transported in a river. e.g. traction. It includes PowerPoint, worksheet and feedback.

Small (mini) projects designed to be conducted around your school grounds. They require students to conduct data collection, presentation, methods, evaluate and create conclusions. The maps used will need changing for your school, but this is simply just a matter of copying it from Google maps. This will save you a lot of time and effort. I have included one PowerPoint to enable you to amend it as you see fit. My kids loved doing these and we schedule them in for the end of the year.

A fully resources lesson to provide students with and overview of the distribution of rainforests & deserts. Students describe the distribution and then look at effective ways to describe graphs. This is an important geographical skill that supports pupils in picking up those easy marks in assessments. The lesson has a focus upon the climate & location of deserts & tropical rainforests, but another layer for other ecosystems can easily be added. I print the rainforest map onto tracing paper which the kids then put the base map in order to create a very simplified GIS map.

A lovely and simple lesson that allows pupils to understand what jobs may be available in the future. It also enables pupils to practice and develop their note-taking skills. With particular reference to putting texts into their own words. It was planned as an integral part of the KS3 Geography curriculum, but can also be used for PSHCE at a whole-school level.

A full lesson (powerpoint & resources) that enables pupils to develop a wide range of skills alongside learning about development indicators and how the world is so uneven. Pupils analyse statistics and data. Present the data in a number of ways using the scaffolded frameworks. Look at analysis strategies. Explain some of the data to explain why it varies. This is best printed on A3.

A great lesson (takes about 3 hours to complete) where pupils look into the impacts that food production has around the world. These are all resources needed. Pupils have an information sheet that includes all of the data needed. They use this to complete a mindmap. One done, they then apply their knowledge in the form of a scaffolded and structured newspaper article. These are all best printed on A3. It pulls a lot of different skills (data analysis, research, not taking, explaining, literacy, comprehension) and geographical understanding together.

A lesson that teaches pupils about the impacts of single use plastic upon ocean turtles. It is simple, yet effective. It uses a story of a turtle that can be read together. Pupils then deliver a speech (using the provided scaffolded/structured sheet) which enables them to develop oral skills too.

A nice lesson to text the name of data presentation techniques/methods. It allows pupils to test their knowledge of different presentation techniques in a game of bingo. Students can then apply their knowledge in some exam practice questions. Bingo cards are best printed in colour.

A lesson (actually 3 lessons) that enables pupils to gain an understanding of the processes that shape the landscape. This is designed for AQA, but can be easily amended for other exam boards. It has all the materials needed. It has independent learning, scaffolding and application of knowledge. All sheets are best printed in A3.
