This lesson is designed for KS2 children. It can be taught as a stand alone lesson but is also available as part of two wider units, both of which are available on TES: -Earthquakes -Volcanoes & Earthquakes First the presentation looks at how the Earth’s crust is split into tectonic plates. It then examines the causes of earthquakes, how they occur at the fault lines between tectonic plates and what the hypocentre and epicentre of an earthquake are. There are three different activities to choose from which can be done in Geography and/or Literacy lessons. These include: Quiz Activity Students watch a video clip about earthquakes and answer comprehension questions about it. This is differentiated two ways. Cloze Procedure Activity Students fill in the blanks in an explanation text about earthquakes. This is differentiated two ways. Writing Activity Student write an explanation text about earthquakes. This is differentiated three ways and comes with vocabulary and sentence starter prompts. If you like this resource, we would appreciate a review!

AQA GCSE Geography lesson for Unti 1A: The Challenge of Natural Hazards. there is a retrieval practice starter grid which will just need filling out by the teacher with appropriate questions. Pupils begin by looking at the location of earthquakes and volcanoes by plotting their location on a map using longitude and latitude. Pupils then describe the pattern using T.E.A (trend, examples, anomaly). We then look at the plates and margins. The pupils use description of the plates locations to work out where they are then descriptions of their movements to draw on arrows of the plates direction of travel. We examine the link between the locations and plate margins and briefly explain the anomalies by looking at hotspot volcanoes. We then tackle a GCSE-style question with guidance for the pupils if needed. In a nutshell lesson includes: Retrieval practice starter Longitude and latitude skills task plotting tectonic hazards Map task using descriptions of plate locations and movements Hotspot diagram drawing GCSE-style question with guidance. Hope this saves you valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

A fully resourced lesson covering: What earthquakes are and why they happen -video and key term matching task Nepal earthquake - case study sheet for students to complete using the information the powerpoint. Follows the Progress in Geography Hodder book.

Created Sept 2017 this lesson has been created for upper KS3 SEN students. With a brightly coloured animated powerpoint, this lesson is designed to engage learners who learn visually. It enables students to learn about the earthquake, discuss the social, economic and environmental impacts and complete a case study. The lesson contains a powerpoint slide, learning objective, success criteria, lesson plan, sources, a reading comprehension and research activities. Adaptable for those studying natural hazards in KS3 and KS4.

This is a booklet on volcanoes and earthquakes that follows the Hodder KS3 scheme of learning. It includes 8 sections and includes a range of activities and tasks that enable student’s to develop and consolidate both their geographical knowledge and skills. This booklet is suitable to be used as a home learning resource, as it includes all the information within it, or can be used as a homework booklet.

A lesson originally taught to year 10 GCSE Geography students (for AQA). It introduces the two earthquakes and allows students to see how levels of development affect the scale of the damage. The lesson includes a card sort activity, peer teaching and examination practice. This lesson could also be adapted for KS3 Geography classes. Fully resourced.

Editable powerpoint with images and videos about earthquakes. Includes brain break ideas e.g shaking dance. Visual content and Widgit visuals for young people with special education needs (SEN/SEND).

An 18 slide PPT on Earthquakes- suitable for junior students/1st years. Includes images, keywords and video clips. There are some ‘to do’ and ‘homework’ slides which refer to our textbook and workbook (Geography in Action), but these can be adapted to suit your own book. Also attached is a short visualisation. For more PPTs on plate tectonics and for a bundle including this PPT, see ‘My Shop’.

Lesson 5 Haiti Earthquake Case Study Deemed an outstanding lesson in my recent PM review, students are to complete a mystery activity and find out why Emmanuel died in the Haiti Earthquake. The mystery includes clear facts about the earthquake, effects on the people and the environment. The card sort is differentiated so all students can access this and depending on the ability of the students you will receive a different answer to the key question. Students can show their understanding of the mystery by completing an exam questions. Example questions are attached to the PowerPoint which students can mark and use as a model when writing their own answers.

This lesson is designed to last for 50-60 minutes and is resourced with videos, extension questioning, deep thinking and uses graphs/images to aid learning. This lesson follows the Oxford KS3 curriculum and looks at how earthquakes are caused, keywords needed for the topic, how they are measured and the impacts of various magnitudes. This lesson includes a starter, lesson objective, plenary and various student led activities.

This booklet looks at the structure of the Earth ad the plates on its surface. Why volcanoes happen is looked at and what exactly a volcano is

Year 7 Science lesson, could be adapted to use with other year groups Students work in groups, each group is researching a different type of plate boundary (conservative, constructive, destructive, collision). They then move around the room and teach other groups about what they have learnt. Focus if the Nepal Earthquake, and students use their learning from the lesson to explain what plate boundary there is in Nepal and why the Earthquake occurred.

This PowerPoint includes tasks surrounding earthquakes. It has a focus on the Nepal earthquake. Objectives are: Bronze - I can identify that earthquakes are caused by shockwaves Silver - I can explain how earthquakes are produced – and I know how they can be detected Gold - I can reconstruct a series of events to put together exactly how an earthquake happens, how it is detected, and what it can cause For year 9 foundation OCR Gateway
