A checklist for pupils to use to assess their understanding of the learning outcomes for Oceans on the Edge Edexcel Spec B (Linear). \n\nI have taken each point from the Edexcel exemplar SOW and organised it for the pupils to consider their understanding of each learbning outcome to identify where further revision/help is needed.

A selection of cards for positive and negative behaviour. \nI print the positive behaviours on green and the ones for negative behaviour on red. \nThe negative behaviour cards rather than tell the pupil what they are doing wrong give the instruction for the alternative action that is expected. \ne.g. If they are talking over the teacher, card says listen when others speak. \n\nIf a pupil recieves 3 red cards a sanction is issued. \nIf a pupil recieves 3 green cards a reward is issued.

This lesson works on encouraging pupils to think about what the world would be like if we ran out of fossil fuels. \n\nWhen I taught this most pupils thought about the problems that would arise from reduced fossil fuel availability but some started to discuss the positive options and future developments that might occur. Some of the ideas were inspiring.\n\nThe pupils clearly understood the issues surrounding fossil fuels and the need for renewable energy. They really enjoyed the creative side of this.
A word list to support KS3 learners with the spelling of key words for a global issues topic that covers \nglobal warming, energy and food and water security.\n\nThese are the words I find they most frequently use within the topic.
A sentence starter and connectives mat to support learners with literacy. \n\nCreated in particular for KS3 but could be used with a variety of year groups.
Dragon's den style project. \n\nPupils to design a product and complete a project on it to show their understanding of globalisation, interdependence and the social and environmental consequences of the things we buy. \n\nDesigned as a homework to be completed along side classwork on the Geography of Fashion and Sport. \nPupils to hand in a project and to produce a presentation on their product to be delivered in a Dragon&'s Den style.
An atlas based lesson to develop the use of an atlas for finding information. \n\nThe lesson was created for a high abiity year 7 set and I have therefore also attached an atlas challenge for lower ability/younger groups.
This is a lesson I did for year 6's during transition week to help develop atlas skills and knowledge of places.
Pupils used the atlas to create a fact file on the country of their choice on the back of the balloon outline. They then drew the flag on the balloon.
Once complete they cut them out and hung them on a 'washing line&' in alphabetical order. This required them to look at the factfile to find out the country represented by each flag.
Powerpoint and card sort on the different types of pollution. \n\nThis was designed for a Set 3 group with a wide range of abilities (right from 2a to 5c) and they loved the Simpson theme throughout the lesson. \n\nThe card sort was given to the pupils as just the images, types of pollution and the sources then as the higher ability completed it they were given the effects to sort. \n\nThe lower ability students were given very simple effect cards with two or three words on each but I'm unable to find that document to add to the resource
