AQA GCSE Geography lesson for Unit 1a. in this lesson we start with a photo starter of a pyroclastic flow where the pupils can design their own GCSE style question then answer. We then move on to look at interpreting photographs of natural hazards which is something we do more of later in the unit. We practice on the landslides in Burundi in 2015. We then look at when a natural event becomes a natural hazard. We progress to categorising various hazards to introduce the categories of hazards. We watch a short video clip on human interaction with natural hazards before the students complete a mind map using hexagons of the factors that increase hazard risk. We finish with a practice question with guidance should the students need it. In a nutshell, the lesson includes: Create a question starter Photo interpretation task Hazard categorising shaded grid task Video clip Factors mind map task GCSE practice question with writing frame. Hope this saves you some valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

Natural hazards review questions PowerPoint.

To learn about some of the most hazardous places on Earth Can you define the term ‘natural hazard’? Can you identify areas with different levels of hazard risk? Can you rank order hazards to identify the most hazardous areas

In this bundle of resources there is revision material including case studies for Earthquakes, Volcanoes, Floods, Super cyclones, tsunamis, landslides and The creating of the 6th mass extinction. This includes information on formation, affects, prediction, measuring and mitigation.

Formation of Earthquakes Formation of Volcanoes Types of Volcanoes Volcano Hazard and Case Studies Comparing Responses to volcanic eruptions/ Risk Perception Earthquake hazards and tsunamis Haiti and Christchurch Managing Earthquakes Causes of mass movements Examples of mass movements Landslides and impacts on lives and property Avalanches Impacts and Solutions to Avalanches Predicting, Preparing and Monitoring Mass Movements Tropical Storms Hazards associated with tropical storms Hurricane Katrina Tornadoes and formation Tornado impacts and management Sustainable management of hazards

A full set of 8 lessons including: What is a hazard?, layers of the earth, plate boundaries, volcano and earthquake formation, hazard comparison and prepare, predict and protect. Also includes a full revision lesson and assessment complete with mark scheme.

Introductory lesson looking at what natural hazards are and how we categorise them. Map task looking at where in the world suffers the most from hazards. Collaborative task where students look at where in the world might be at risk from hazards.

This SOL looks at hazards. It focuses on tropical storms and then climate change.HIC and LIC tropical storms. It also looks into whether climate change is natural or human made. It includes several case studies including the Maldives, Mozambique and UK.

Define natural hazards, understand examples work in a group present the hazard that you have been allocated

Complete lesson - Linked to AQA 2016 Geography syllabus All resources required for lesson attached. PowerPoint self explanatory. LOs Define natural hazard. Identify and categorise natural hazards. Explain factors that affect hazard risk.

Explains why there are natural hazards based on global location, plate boundaries and human causes. Explains why the Philippines are particularly vulnerable, including having a low capacity to cope.

This lesson is designed to last for 1 hour and is resourced with videos, extension questioning, deep thinking and uses graphs/images to aid learning. This lesson follows the Cambridge KS4 curriculum and looks at prediction, protection and preparation management methods for volcanoes, earthquakes, floods, droughts and tropical storms. Where possible management strategies will be generalised but students will also look at methods applicable to individual hazards. This lesson includes a starter, lesson objective, plenary, exam question and various student led activities.
