This is a standalone lesson focused on the Willow Project. It was taught at the end of a KS3 Climate Change unit and incorporated due to high levels of student interest / inquisition about the issue.
The lesson includes:
Background information/ context about the Willow Project
Embedded TikTok videos (used as they are informative and engaging short clips on a platform relevant to the students)
Positive / Negative, S.E.E Impact activity with accompanying Stretch and Challenge Extension task.
Diamond 9 impact assessment task.
QR codes linked to two petitions
Campaigning for Change creative option task where students can either choose to create a protest poster about the project or write a letter to the government explaining their view on the project. Both activities supported with success criteria.
A concluding, positive video from David Attenborough about how we are powerful enough to change the world for the better.
I hope that your students enjoy this lesson and that this can save you some valuable planning time. If you do use this with your students, I’d love to be tagged in your posts to see what you create!

This is a new resource for KS3 that can be adapted, expanded or used as it. It is a 6 page resource that can take 2-3 lessons or even as a homework task.
It includes questions about the governance, laws, location, flag, national holidays etc. It is a great way to engage students to think about how they perceive geography and politics.
A lesson which introduces the Windrush generation.
Contains guidance for a research project including sources such as videos, books, podcasts and museums.
Taught as part of a geography SOW on the UK which coincides with Black History Month.
Using different projections of the world students will be asked how reality can be portrayed in different ways. They will understand why different projections are used and the problems and advantages that come with portraying a 3D world in 2D.
Content
This lesson is designed to work with MYP, KS3, NCSS standards and is ready to go straight out the box. This lesson includes the following files; 1) Powerpoint presentation, 2) Resource sheets, 3) worksheets, 4) comprehension test, 5) a lesson plan (MYP aligned).
How to Use
Students will be introduced to a series of different map projections, along with the reasons for their differences. They will then engage in a work task to evaluate what projection is most suitable for a particular task before evaluating the usefulness of a range of projections in real life situations. This lesson can run either as an individual task or a group activity. A model lesson structure is outlined in the lesson plan. This also provides actively provides opportunities for SEN and LEx differentiation.
Who Should Buy This
This lesson can be used by anyone, but it is designed to be taught out of the box. It is best suited to a new teacher or a teacher who wants everything done with no input from themselves. I strongly advise looking at the units bundles if you want to build on each lessons topics sequentially. If you are a more experienced teacher then check out the resource packs for use in history lessons.

This project is a great addition to your habitats or ecosystems unit. It can be used as a supplemental learning resource or as an alternative assessment. It includes 8 vibrantly colored biome posters in addition to the cube biome pages. Detailed step-by-step assembly instructions are also provided.
This resource includes eight different biomes. When assembled, each 3-D biome cube contains four biomes. It is at the teacher’s discretion to make this an individual or group project, and whether students pick the biomes they want to work on or if they are assigned. The biome pictures contain enough details to show students the main features of each, while leaving room to draw in additional plants and animals to demonstrate an understanding of each biome. On the front of each cube side, students write a description of the biome as well as listing plants and animals found there and the locations where the biome exists. And, these finished resources will look great when displayed in your classroom!
The following biomes are included:
★ Rainforest Biome
★ Grassland Biome
★ Marine Biome
★ Desert Biome
★ Freshwater Biome
★ Tundra Biome
★ Deciduous Forest Biome
★ Taiga Biome (Boreal Forest)
Four biomes go on each “cube.” They actually form triangular prisms, but I’m counting the air inside each where kids can add pop-up animals, modeling clay, etc. so I call them cubes. :)
Enjoy!
