AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1A: In this first lesson in the section we look at what the evidence is for climate change. We start with a picture interpretation around frost fairs on the River Thames and how this might be evidence for climate change. We then look at the graphs that scientists have composed that show how our climate has fluctuated over the years. The pupils will have a large A3 activity sheet to fill in as the lesson progresses. The second section looks at ice cores and how they have helped the scientists formulate records of past climates. We then look at the impacts of global climate change and how they might also be evidence for climate change too. The pupils will write down their own ideas then elaborate with the help of the slides and some video clips. We finish with GCSE-style question with some suggested content if they need help. In a nutshell lesson includes: Picture interpretation starter A3 activity sheet on the evidence for climate change Video clips where appropriate GCSE-style question with guidance on suggested content.
