The UK's Diverse Landscapes

AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the 2016 specification Unit 1C. In this lesson we look at the Uk’s diverse landsacpes. It is the first lesson in Section C: The Physical Landscapes of the UK.

We start with a collection of photos of different landscapes in the UK to highlight the diversity of landscapes we have. We then complete a short cloze exercise paragraph on the different landscapes in the UK. The main task of the lesson involves using an atlas to complete the map on the A3 worksheet. Firstly the students colour the map according to the relief using colouring by numbers. They then locate the major upland / lowland areas of the UK using the descriptions in the boxes and their atlas. They can also locate some of the major rivers. There are also some extension questions using the information in the boxes. They then answer a 4-mark practice question using photos. There is some guidance on structure and points to use to help the students with this.

Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.
