Each lesson has all materials provided (with YouTube links) and is ready to teach out-of-the-box. This resources is a two-lesson sequence introducing the concept of economic development and asks pupils to handle data and create a map of selected countries based upon their GNI per capita. It then asks pupils to draw conclusions about the method (i.e. is there sufficient evidence) and, once the full map has been provided, patterns of economic development around the world. The lesson also includes the visual schema for this unit.

The seventh lesson in a 13-lesson KS3 Geography unit about Endangered Species. All lessons are fully resourced with a range of engaging activities. This lesson leads on from the previous lesson (production of palm oil) the further examine the threats to orangutans. It also covers a range of other threats to this species.

This lesson introduces the a wide range of graph types to support the Eduqas B Geograph 9-1 specification, although it is directly transferable to all specifications. It introduces the graph types and asks students to select appropriate types based upon certain criteria. The lesson covers: Axis Bar, line and pie charts Pictographs Histographs Divided bar charts Scatter graph Population pyramid Flow line graph Located bar chart Kite diagrams Star or radial diagrams

This lesson develops an understanding of infrastructure, an oft-named element of GCSE Geography but one which is rarely explained properly to allow students to access higher-level explanations of, for example, differing levels of development. This lesson introduces the concept of infrastructure, explains the difference between hard and soft infrastructure then investigates how infrastructure may affect development (and vise versa). The lesson is fully resources with engaging developmental activities.

A lesson examining what actually constitutes a country by examining Kurdish separatism and its impacts in Syria, Turkey, Iraq and Iran. Pupils use pie charts to examining the size of Kurdish populations and the amount of land potentially lost to a proposed Kurdish country. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

This lesson revises ‘Rivers’ and ‘Water Resources’ aspects of KS3 by examining the issue of river management in Turkey and Syria and its impacts on Iraq. The question of how this may lead to conflict in the future is discussed. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding. The unit was designed for Y9 and synoptically revises their KS3 course whilst using skills and concepts from their KS4 Geography studies (specifically, for Eduqas Geography B but relevant to all boards).

This lesson introduces the scale and types of migration to Dubai and pupils complete a flow-line (desire line) map activity. The Kafala system of migration to Dubai is also discussed. This is a part of a fully-resourced unit with a range of styles of activity and unashamedly embracing aspects of thinking skills (they still work) and dual coding.

This is a triple-lesson introducing students to Mumbai before using a variety of graphicacy techniques to understand how Mumbai has grown over time. Students will complete a pictograph, a choropleth map and located bar charts and will then examine a scatter graph, choropleth map, flow-line map, bar chart and compound line graph. They will consider the role of natural increase in Mumbai’s growth together with the impact of rural-to-urban migration. These lessons are fully resourced and students are provided with a worksheet to help them to develop their conclusions. Includes a homework (living graph) and a selection of graphs electronically for students to complete Lesson 3 if required.

Lesson 7 in my GCSE Geography unit - Mumbai. This lesson examines formal and informal employment in Mumbai. The lesson utilised hyperlinked videos, a sorting activity, graph analysis and photo reading to develop understanding. A homework is included that could also be an extension activity.

The third lesson in a 13-lesson KS3 Geography unit about Endangered Species. All lessons are fully resourced with a range of engaging activities. This lesson introduces the history of extinction on Earth and the concept of ‘mass extinctions events’.

This is a Y6 Welcome Day (Induction Day) secondary school lesson. It introduces students to Geography at secondary school. Beginning with basic map/flag identification to get the children involved, the lesson moves on to explain that we will study those things and some of the content they have studied in primary school. However, it goes on to explain that at secondary school we look at more complex geography. It introduces some of the development indicators and there is a group-based worksheet task (Publisher and PDF provided) to link definitions, icons and facts about each indicator. Then pupils learn about the key skill of constructing chains of reasoning by linking taxes to education and jobs (and then life expectancy). It finishes with a fun game of Blockbusters.

Cover work for Geography, either KS3 or KS4. You will need to supply atlases (or a map on a PPT to be projected) and then pupils simply work through the tasks. Could not be easier - no more complaints from supply teachers or cover supervisors and no mores scratching aroundf at 7am when you are i ll - just set the worksheet and forget about it.

A lesson designed for our Y9 Africa KS3 unit. This lesson introduces the location of Africa, alongside reinforcing the location of other major global physical features and lines of latitude, and then examines the location of the major physical features and geography of Africa. The lesson ends with an modelled description of this.

The fifth lesson in the Y9 Africa unit, this lesson leads pupils to understand how rainfall anomalies in the mid 20th century led to increased agricultural activity and population in the Sahel and the subsequent challenges this - and lower rainfall patterns - have caused that threaten the biome in the area (and the implications for humans)

The third lesson in the Y9 Africa unit, this lesson introduces pupils to a range of solutions to desertification (magic stones, drip irrigation, rainwater harvesting, etc) and asks pupils to learn about and then present this information to the class.

This lesson introduces the concepts of climate anomaly, glacial mass and the melting of glaciers. It then examines the impacts of glacial melt.

A lesson which introduces the biomes of Russia, including steppe, tundra, taiga and temperate forest. Pupils examine each biome and look at adaptations. Progress in KS3 textbook (Hodder) required for the last part of the lesson
