*** The lesson***
**A very thorough and detailed revision lesson that recaps pretty much all of the key content from GCSE Tectonics apart from case studies. **
The lesson includes a very detailed worksheet with sections on structure of the earth, tectonics, types of tectonic hazard, preparing for and monitoring tectonic hazards as well as plate boundaries.
The lesson includes a detailed Power point that includes a starter activity, revision sheet (including all answers) and quiz to finish. There is enough material for 1-2 lessons depending on ability. I would recommend using textbooks and/or exercise books along with the revision sheets if students are struggling.
This would serve as a great recap/revision lesson for any GCSE class, is easy to teach and will save you a lot of time!
Includes rivers, coasts, urban and tourism fieldwork sheets and booklets for use from Key Stage 3 to GCSE. Booklets can easily be adapted for your study area.This bundles also contains follow up work booklets for river, coast and urban fieldwork incorporating a range of skills including methods, site choice data presentation, interquartile range, analysis and conclusions. Each section in the follow up booklet includes a GCSE mark scheme to assess the students work.All resources have been used successfully with students.
Coasts Revision Sheet can be printed doubled sided on either A4 or A3. This sheet is aimed at pupils who prefer more structured revision or lower ability students who need more support. Sheet numbered 1 - 12 as used in conjunction with revision clocks. Students to pick which sheet they’d prefer allowing for self differentiation.
**Includes all 12 of my GCSE revision packs! **
An excellent series of well resourced lessons perfect for revising physical Geography as well as geographical skills.
Perfect for any GCSE class and works for all exam boards.

Cut-out letters with rock design - R, O, C, K, S
A4 Rock Cycle Poster
Rocks frame image file - this can be copied and pasted into other documents that you want to add to your display.
Resource 2: A-Z Rocks and Fossils PowerPoint
Consolidate learning on rocks and fossils with this 26 slide PowerPoint presentation.
Each letter is a different themed word which will help pupils re-cap their learning, as well as introduce some new vocabulary. Questions within the presentation provide an opportunity for pupils to share their thoughts and knowledge.
**Resource 3: How A Fossil is Formed Activity **

Resource 5: How a fossil is formed folding craft
Teach the stages of fossilisation with this folding ammonite craft. Print on A4 card ready for pupils to colour and fold like a concertina. When closed, you’ll just see the large fossil ammonite but when opened, the fossilisation process will be revealed!
Instructions are provided as well as some questions for discussion.
Resource 6: Fossil identification activity
Your class can become palaeontologists! This activity consists of 15 full colour photos of different fossils with labels to match (pictures can be printed with or without a background). Fossils include ammonites, a mosasaur tooth, megalodon tooth, shells, coral and a plesiosaur backbone.
There are 2 sets of labels to choose from (1 set requiring some internet research, the other more descriptive to allow pupils to try to identify without needing to go online).
A 20 question worksheet to support Earth: The Power of the Planet documentary. The first episode focused on the physical processes surrounding volcanoes and tectonic processes. Dr Iain Stewart reveals the role natural forces have played in the creation of the planet Earth. Although volcanoes appear to be destructive, volcanoes have been crucial to the development of life. Iain’s journey takes him to Ethiopia to discover lava lakes, to Iceland to scuba dive between continents and to New Zealand to sample some hot springs.
The worksheet has 20 questions, in varying styles that covers the full 1 hour documentary and comes with a detailed answer sheet for teachers.
Questions on the worksheet includes the following topics:
Active volcanoes
Earth’s core
Plate boundaries
Earthquakes
Erosion and transportation
Climate Change
C02 storage
Subduction
For worksheets to support other science and nature documentaries please see my shop.
Two straightforward worksheets that involve comprehension skills and then develop into GCSE style questions with an emphasis on understanding the command words. They are designed to be standalone and promote close reading of the text. Colour has been used to help organize the information but they photocopy easily in black and white. Suitable for Geography, Earth Science and Chemistry lessons.

Information in this revision sheet is not mine, and is adpated and condensed from the Edexcel Revision Workbook and Guide as well as the GGP Revision Guide for Edexcel Geography B.

Have used the worksheet with lower ability students and they have been able to access them and help them with mock/practice exams.
Iceland is rather unique in terms of plate tectonics. Most divergent plate edges exist under water and the consequences, though known, cannot be observed easily. Iceland is THE PLACE where divergent plates can be studied on land. It is, in effect a large outside laboratory for those interested in plate tectonics. Throughout the island there are examples of landforms connected to disturbances caused by plate divergence and crustal instability. Here in plain view can be seen landscapes related to the divergence of the Eurasian and North American Plates.The island provides examples of activity related to the intrusion of material into the crustal zone as the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates diverge. It is a land of volcanoes, volcanic vents, ridges and valleys. Constant earthquakes indicate the unsettled sub-surface. It has active volcanoes located beneath icefields. It is a world leader in using geothermal resources for power generation. By photograph and block diagram your students can visit the landscape and gain some understanding of the unique geomorphology of this island. It's a hot topic. This unit can be linked with the 3 units on the island of Heimaey and the eruption of the Eldfell Volcano.
