AQA A Level Geography Paper 1 SOWs

Everything you need to teach the whole of AQA A-Level Geography Paper 1 for the Coasts and Hazards route: Section A Water and Carbon Cycles, Section B Coastal Systems and Landscapes, and Section C Hazards. Three complete, ready-to-teach schemes of work in one bundle, at a saving on buying them separately.

WHAT IS INCLUDED

Water and Carbon Cycles (3.1.1) - 18 lessons, 4 student workbooks, scheme of work. Case studies: River Exe and the Amazon rainforest.

Coastal Systems and Landscapes (3.1.3) - 19 lessons, 4 student workbooks, scheme of work. Case studies: Holderness and Odisha, India.

Hazards (3.1.5) - 26 lessons, 4 student workbooks, scheme of work, plus a revealable mark scheme slide after every exam practice question. Case studies: the Philippines (multi-hazardous environment) and Grindavik, Iceland (local scale), with La Palma 2021, Turkiye-Syria 2023, Cyclone Idai and Hurricane Ian, and Australia’s Black Summer.

In total: 63 PowerPoint lesson decks (about 95 hours of teaching), 12 matched Word workbooks, and a scheme of work for each unit in two versions - 90-minute lessons and 60-minute lessons.

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

Built from the exam outwards. Every unit started with AQA mark schemes, examiner reports and past papers, then lessons were constructed to teach students exactly what the exam rewards. Real AQA questions from recent A-level and AS papers appear throughout, each labelled with its series and question number, and every exam question uses a tariff that actually appears on the paper.

Up-to-date, evidence-checked examples. Every fact, figure and date has been checked against authoritative sources, and every example is dated so students learn to write with precision.

Consistent from start to finish. All three units share the same lesson structure, house style and workbook layout, so students know what to expect and you can plan a whole year in one go.

Copyright-safe. AQA figures are never reproduced; each lesson tells you exactly which insert or question paper page to print. Model answers are written by RB Resources and clearly labelled.

EVERY LESSON INCLUDES

• A starter that recaps the previous lesson, followed by learning objectives
• Clean, readable slides with dual-coded diagrams and credited photographs
• A range of activities: card sorts, mini whiteboards, diamond ranking, role-play, data analysis, model-answer highlighting and timed essay practice
• Support and stretch boxes for mixed-ability classes
• Exam tip strips, exam practice and an exit ticket
• A timing guide for splitting each 90-minute lesson across two shorter lessons

EVERY WORKBOOK INCLUDES

Key terms boxes and writing frames for students who need support, challenge tasks and extra reading for the most able, structured activities with ruled writing lines, and exam practice for every lesson. Use them for classwork, homework, cover lessons or independent revision.

Everything is fully editable. Every PowerPoint and every Word document is unlocked so you can adapt any slide, add your own examples, adjust timings or amend any activity to suit your class.
