Series of 7 lessons that looks at ice ages, glaciers, glacial processes, erosional features, OS map work of glaciated landscapes and conflicts in glaciated landscapes. The lessons include starter activities with answers, information slides, a variety of activities, video hyperlinks and plenary tests.

AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the latest specification Unit 1B: In this lesson we look at the types of erosional landforms you find in glaciated landscapes. The starter is just a quick coast-themed retrieval practice quiz which has been left blank so you can add your own questions. We start by looking at the erosive power of glaciers and how corries form in highland areas. The pupils create a sequential diagram to show how a corrie forms from small nivation hollows. We then look at aretes and pyramidal peaks with examples of each and then look at how erosion has created a variety of further highland erosional features when the pupils annotate a diagram of a highland glaciated area. We finish with a 6 mark GCSE-style exam question with guidance on how to answer it. The lesson also uses some video clips to help the pupils visualise these features. Hope this saves you some valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the latest specification Unit 1B: In this lesson we look at transportation and depositional landforms such as moraines, drumlins and erratics. The starter is glaciation-themed retrieval quiz. We then look at the idea of the glacial conveyor belt, what glacial till is and what the difference between sorted and unsorted material is and why they form in different environments. The pupils create diagrams of both. We then consider moraines and the different types of moraines. The pupils have a diagram to annotate and label. We then consider drumlins, the pupils again create diagrams and learn why they show direction of movement and collective called ‘basket of eggs’ topography. We then briefly look at erratics and how they can also show the history of glacier movement. We finish with a 4 mark GCSE-style exam question with guidance on how to answer it. Hope this saves you some valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the latest specification Unit 1B: In this lesson we look at the processes of weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition in glacial environments. The starter is just a quick photo mystery around glacial deposits. We then look at the extent of the ice sheet during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). We introduce freeze-thaw weathering as the principle type of weathering in glacial environments as the pupils create a sequential diagram. The pupils are provided with a diagram to annotate for the processes of abrasion and plucking. We watch a video on the transportation of material by the glacier and the pupils create a diagram. They then construct a paragraph on transportation by guessing the missing words using the picture prompts. They also construct a paragraph on deposition based on sentence fragments. We finish with a 4 mark GCSE-style exam question with guidance on how to answer it. Hope this saves you some valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

Lesson 1 of 8. Lesson Objectives: To be able to define what a glacier is and describe what they look like. To describe where glaciers are located. To be able to explain the location of glaciers.

www.geographygeek.co.uk is a personal, non-profit making website for Geography teaching resources. Use this resource to teach KS4 pupils about glaciation.

Notes on glaciation, the landforms they create and how those landforms are used today.

This resource contains a word document with 5 model answers based on glaciation past paper questions, from AQA GCSE Geography. It also contains a PowerPoint which can be used to guide students through exam technique.

Part of a Year 9 scheme of work on Glaciation, all resources included, final lesson in the series.

This lesson looks at the work of a glaciologist

Glaciation: AQA -1 GCSE Geography

This lesson looks at some of the main glacial processes in shaping the landscape through erosion (abrasion and plucking) and deposition. It also looks at the features that are left behind (corries and tarns, U shaped valleys and morraines).

Good for home learning to encourage extra research for students. To build upon the Geog textbook.

This knowledge booklet is used alongside the unit of work for KS3 Glaciation to provide the students with an overview of the lessons they will be doing and practice questions for them to have a go at and ideas of questions in the tests.
