Antarctica tourism

This a resource developed for a KS3 (Year 8) observation where it was noted that the resources and differentiation were outstanding.

It involves summarising the positive/negative impacts of tourism before asking students to write a speech about whether tourism should be allowed in Antarctica based on information sheets. (Writing frames are provided).

Three tiers of differentiation for the main 'speech' task offering different points of view on the positives or negatives of Antarctic tourism. (Greenpeace v Tour Operators). Different stakeholder information sheets are within the powerpoint. Writing frames etc. are separate.

The layout of the slides has been adapted from another TES resource but the content is different.

The resource includes:
- Lesson powerpoint (style adapted from another TES resource, content differs) including stakeholders info
- Impacts of tourism card sort
- Lesson plan for lesson structuring
- Writing frames for the speeches (differentiated depending on stakeholder)
- Success criteria for writing speeches
