This is an upper intermediate (CEFR B2, IELTS 6.0) EFL Speaking class about mountains. Students begin the class by describing four pictures of mountains. A short discussion follows. Target language (summit, tree line, cliff, slope, valley, ridge) is introduced using photographs. Students then match the vocabulary to the meaning. Students will then brainstorm the different kinds of animals that live in the mountains. Six images are then shown, each showing a different animal (cougar, snow leopard, golden eagle, ibex, black bear, hare). Students then rank the most dangerous animal to the least dangerous. Finally, students give their opinions in an agree/disagree activity.

Planning and resources for Year 3. Can be adapted for other year groups. Meets Natioanl Curriculum objectives.

A series of eight lessons planned for Years 5/6 on the geography unit of Mountains. Lessons cover the following: L1 - The worlds greatest peaks L2 - Mountain Ranges and fold mountains L3 - 1924 Everest Expedition L4 - Fossils on Mount Everest L5 - Comparing the Cambrian Mountains and the Himalayas L6 - Cambrian Mountains L7 - Cambrian Mountain Mystery (local geography links to Wales and Birmingham/West Midlands) L8 - Renewable Energy Sources - How do mountains play their part? Each lesson comes with the PowerPoint Presentation and resources to support the learning.

An interactive activity that begins with a powerpoint and ends with groups of children working on creating their own mountain effects out of materials. Warning, need to prepare in advance for the activity. (Materials used for fold mountains are paper, tissue paper and thicker more scratchy type material to reflect differences in the earth's surface). Resources needed are crispy chocolate slabs, icing in plastic bag, sand, material, balloon and paper.

All over the world, in every kind of climate, majestic mountain ranges rise up as eternal guardians of nature’s beauty. Shaped over millions of years by the forces of tectonics and weather, these geological wonders not only define the landscapes they inhabit but also affect weather patterns and host unique ecosystems. Whether it’s towering peaks capped with everlasting snow or lush slopes descending into valleys, each mountain range has its own story of endurance, cultural significance, and ecological variety. This book is not about the tallest mountains (most of them are in the Himalayas anyway); it is about the biggest mountain ranges of the world. Each chapter is dedicated to one such mountain range, with plenty of interesting facts about them. At the end, there are some multiple choice questions to check your students’ undrstanding, and as usual the relevant answer key to the questions. Explore our world through teaching cool geography!

Slideshow about mountain types, including dome, plateau, fold and block mountains. Includes adaptable activities. Large font and dyslexia-friendly. 14 slides.
