Simple template on Y7 tectonic plates (not fully completed) GCSE completed SOW on coasts (from a very good Bristol school - they pay trainees to have 3x meals a day and actually pay you thousands of pounds for having them as a placement - of course your placements are chosen by your university provider). Year 8 SOW (from private institutions) If you would like others, feel free to leave the comment under reviews and I can update the files if I have them (History and Geography mainly).

I’ve included lots of books and research that you need to read if you’re becoming a geography teacher. I’ve also made summaries of some of them in case you didn’t want to read the whole thing. The main book I made a bigger document, and in the book you can find a large table that separates sections well. These will be useful towards your assignments. My assignments were around 78 marks.

I included an example of a fieldwork booklet. It is adaptable and sections can be removed depending on how much time you have. This school was huge and they walked around separately as we had 4 buses of students. Since we walked, I was the guide and mentioned all the prices etc. The school is deprived so you need to address misconceptions during evaluation on whether it was successful or not as the students will think these big shops are amazing/ or unaware due to their hometown being small. With a different school, we did the boat tour instead so they were able to easily take photos to annotate, write a lot and complete a full booklet (different to this booklet). In that booklet, the main difference was we added a map of the locations the boat goes and labelled it. Students made notes on each part. The boat tour guide may know some things, otherwise I (and you) know the information already to share. On the boat tour, you’ll see the giant boat that Bristol paid millions to move a few yards down for “regeneration” of the food shops nearby. When walking, we never saw it. Bristol has a lot of history and original butts, cranes etc. in the area which people may not know. Things like vegetation drainage, use of brown field sites etc. I included some information for you in case you are unaware, and some articles. With other schools, they decided to not visit Bristol.

Full Lesson (observed by universities and other higher educational roles). Trade Game - It is slightly different to the usual trade game. Amendable depending how long you will play for. Learn about HIC, NEE, LIC - global trade imports, exports - inequalities - international events, etc. You may need a glossary or students may have some prior knowledge about development or globalisation (depends on what your students have learnt to correctly place this into your planning but the reflection is the most important part). Includes 6 countries. Each countries equipment list included. Total equipment list. Amendable depending on your equipment. You may want to borrow students’ equipment if needed. Added observer roles for high ability who (who can also act as referees to control behaviour if you have behaviour problems). Make sure they are rewarded. They watch the countries and write up a report. A4 sheet with list of questions and prompts for them to complete. Note: You can make it clear if you are allowing or not allowing stealing. I usually say nothing and think they would do it but they don’t. I only had one class do it - which is not against the rules. This can link back to some History and Geography such as South Sudan. After game, you have a discussion as they will probably have a lot to say or comment about. Cut it off at the appropriate time. Included reflection cards for them to answer prompt questions with challenges. They are able to express what they wanted to say through writing. Observers will write their short report. You may have some share at end. Usually, I get lots of hands up as the low ability are able to do this, and the ones who really want to express themselves. I completed it with new classes - considered risktaking by most educators. E.g. Some schools and teachers have never done such a lesson. I’d recommend doing this if you know the class well enough, attempted some freedom lessons that you can trust them during this game, otherwise you need to have good behaviour management or plan B if you struggle to control. I’ve done this and other freedom lessons with new classes often with strict rules because every student are able enjoy and interact with the lessons (with any ability).
