AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification Unit 2B: In this lesson we look at the changing transport infrastructure of the UK.
The lesson starts with a retrieval practice task. We then briefly consider what infrastructure means before looking at what the problems with the UK’s existing infrastructure is. The pupils create a mind map for this. We then look at projects that the UK is undertaking or has recently undertaken to improve transport connections. The pupils have a map of the UK to annotate using information slides that can be placed around the room, on tables or in groups. We look at a short video clip on Crossrail and the pupils answer questions about the impacts the project being over schedule and over budget has had on local people and the economy. There is a consolidation task which gives pupils a choice or questions to answer. We finish with a 6-mark practice question with some guidance on how to respond.
Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.

30 lessons – ‘The Explorer’ by Katherine Rundell – Year 4/5/6 – English planning
A whole term’s English planning linked to the book ‘The Explorer’ (Winner of the Children’s Book Prize Winner of the Costa Children’s Book Award 2017) by Katherine Rundell. This story fits well with any topic linked work about South America, as it is set in the Amazon Rainforest.
Ideal for Year 4, Year 5 or Year 6 children.
There are 30 lessons in total, all with SMART Notebook screens, task sheets and header sheets.
To assist teaching, there are a total of 149 SMART Notebook screens and each lesson is clearly marked along with which lesson each chapter should be read to aid and link to the learning.
(Update - I personally use SMART Notebook files in my own lessons. In response to many requests, I have converted the SMART Notebook screens to Powerpoint, so there is also a Powerpoint presentation included for the teaching sequence for those unable to use SMART Notebook. However, please note that while the SMART Notebook screens can be edited, the Powerpoint screens can not be edited as they are screen snips from the SMART Notebook file.)
This planning includes:
Writing a narrative
Writing a persuasive letter
SATs style comprehension questions
Journal writing
Writing an information text
Recording a radio broadcast
This book and planning link well with topic work on South America, Brazil, the Amazon Rainforest and the Yanomami indigenious tribe. It will also educate and inform the children of a very current real problem that others in the world face - the destruction of the rainforest.
Some comments from reviews on this resource:
‘This resource is absolutely brilliant - it has everything you need for a term’s worth of work on The Explorer … in an engaging and fun way. Perfect!’ (staylor138)
‘Fantastic and well worth the money, a very broad range of activities that are very well planned and resourced.’ (taylor29)
‘Great resource- such a timesaver!’ (penrich1)
I have produced an A3 summary sheet based on the 2024 AQA Paper 3 pre-release material. This sheet will help students to summarise the information from the pre-release booklet, with a range of activites including: numeracy, OS map skills and data interpretation.
This lesson is part of Understanding Latitude and Longitude, a unit designed for students in upper KS2 and KS3. It can also be taught as a stand-alone lesson.
The presentation introduces the concept of lines of latitude and longitude, including the Equator and Prime Meridian, and goes on to explain their purpose and relationship to Earth’s hemispheres and poles.
In the activity, students have to identify all of these features on diagrams of the Earth. It is differentiated two ways and includes an extension:
Easier – Students have label clues and a vocabulary bank to help them.
Harder – Students have only a vocabulary bank to help them.
Extension – Students fill in the missing words in a text about latitude and longitude.
