AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 2B: In this lesson we look at how trade and in particular Fairtrade can help reduce the development gap. The lesson has a retrieval practice starter based around Ordnance Survey symbols. We firstly introduce what tariffs and quotas are and the pupils fill in a table where they decide if the statement applies to a tariff or a quota. The pupils complete a cloze exercise on what free trade is and we then look at the benefits of being in a trading group or trade bloc. We introduce Fairtrade and there is a video clip, we then look at Uganda and coffee farmers in the country who participate in a Fairtrade scheme and community project. The pupils complete a guided reading exercise and there is also a video for this. We finish with a GCSE-style practice question with some guidance and structure provided for the students. Hope this saves you some valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

READY TO TEACH This lesson focuses on Fairtrade chocolate. Pupils make a note of key terms in their books, before analysing a choropleth map showing cocoa bean production (slide 4). Pupils explore the process of cocoa bean production, from cocoa bean to chocolate bar, discussing the amount of money received from the sale of a chocolate bar for farmers, importers, chocolate companies, governments, UK shops etc (slides 6-7). The concept of unfair trade is explored, with a discussion of how this can best be resolved (slide 9). Pupils then discuss how farmers, retailers and consumers benefit directly from Fairtrade (slide 10). A comparison of two families involved in farming is then discussed, contrasting the family who have an increased quality of life due to Fairtrade, leading to a discussion for why Fairtrade is important (slide 11). The concept of whether Fairtrade is really fair is also explored (slide 12). A concluding activity of the lesson, involves pupils reflecting on whether or not they’ll buy Fairtrade products in the future. The homework task involves creating merchandise, promoting Fairtrade.
