WJEC - A LEVEL - TECTONIC HAZARDS - VOLCANOES
This is a fully plug-and-play resource for the WJEC A Level Geography course. It includes detailed, well-structured slides to support teachers who may be new to this topic, as well as those returning to it after some time.
The resource is fully aligned with the WJEC A Level Geography specification (2016) and covers Specification Point 1.3 (Tectonic Hazards).
This pack focuses specifically on the volcanoes section of the course.
Although there are nine lessons in total (including a suggested exam and feedback lesson), the depth of content means lessons can easily be split, adapted, or delivered over a longer period to suit the needs of your department and learners.
Lessons included:
Lesson 1 – 1.3.1: Tectonic Hazards
Lesson 2 – 1.3.1: Structure of the Earth
Lesson 3 – 1.3.1: Plate Margins
Lesson 4 – 1.3.2: Types of Volcanoes
Lesson 5 – 1.3.2: Types of Volcanic Hazards
Lesson 6 – 1.3.2, 1.3.4, 1.3.5: Case Study – Mount Mayon, Philippines (LIC)
Lesson 7 – 1.3.2, 1.3.4, 1.3.5: Student-led Case Study – Iceland Eruption 2010 (HIC)
Lesson 8 – Potential Exam
Lesson 8 (continued) – Exam Feedback (for selected questions)
Lesson 9 – 1.3.5: Mitigation
All lessons are fully resourced. Where a task refers to a worksheet or handout, clear instructions are provided. Key terms are explained throughout to support both teacher subject knowledge and student understanding.
