AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 1A: In this lesson we look at a case study of Typhoon Haiyan.
The bundle contains two lessons.
**1. Typhon Haiyan 2013: Causes and effects. **We start with a short exercise where the students look at a photograph of destruction in Tacloban and list as many hazards and effects as they can think of. We then briefly look at the events of Typhoon Haiyan before writing a short paragraph describing its location. We then look at the causes and the students study a map of SST’s and then go on to annotate a map showing the track of the typhoon throughout the course of its life. We then look at the effects. The students complete a choropleth map (colouring by numbers) that shows the numbers of people affected and answer some questions regarding the map. We then watch a short clip of the effects and then annotate a photograph of the damage looking for primary and secondary effects. We finish with a GCSE-style practice question, using the same
photograph and there is some guidance and structure provided for the students.
**2. The Responses to Typhoon Haiyan. **There is a short, multi-choice retrieval practice starter before we begin based o the content learned last lesson. We start with the photograph we used in lesson 1, this time the students answer a question regarding immediate responses and what types of responses they think were undertaken in the wake of the typhoon. We then look at the actual responses and the students complete a worksheet that sorts them into immediate and long-term responses (some students will put them into chronological order). Following this we look at some of the criticisms of the responses and the students complete a highlighter activity to determine which were the most significant failings in the responses. We then tackle a 9-mark question and there is some guidance on the structure of their answers to help the students complete this.
Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.
