Glossary for the Year 7 Unit of Work - I set this as homework then test in class.

A simple activity identifying by colour which countries are in the Northern Hemisphere and which are in the Southern Hemisphere. All of my activities are created on an Acer Chromebook in a series of Posts on a Google Blog. So, if you have a blog, or want to create one to try this concept out, simply copy and paste the text in the downloaded text file as a NEW POST and PUBLISH. They are created as TEMPLATES for you to adapt and add your own content. The screenshots can be downloaded simply as worksheets. The original activity can be found at https://learnanytime-mycreations.blogspot.com/2024/02/hemispheres-connecting-by-colouring.html The activities are meant to be fun, flexible and differentiated. They are meant to develop transferable skills and be cross curricular. As a result they hopefully reinforce small chunks of information and give a better understanding of a topic. Most of the activities are aimed at UK National Curriculum KS1 and KS2. learnanytime@gmail.com

Part of a fully resourced Year 7 SoW. Lesson 1 focuses on students making local, national and international connections. The maps will need adapting for your local area.

Use these 8 "Only Connect" boards as a starter/ bell work activity or as a stretch and challenge activity for KS3&4. Only Connect is a BBC2 TV show hosted by Victoria Coren where players are given a board of 16 words and their job is to find 4 sets of 4 connected words. The boards are easy to print and laminate and can add to your range of activities as starters, plenaries or used for stretch and challenge activities when students have finished the task set.

• By the end of the lesson, the students should be able to : • Define connection • Explain ways people are connected to places all over the world • Explain map and scale • Explain grid reference, measure distance and direction on the map • Explain how to measure height on the map • Use lines of latitudes and longitudes to locate places on map

There are two photocopiable worksheets here which accompany the Franklin Watts book 'Espresso Ideas Box: Where you live'. There is a sheet that allows the pupil to investigate a local building and one that encourages them to think of British connections – areas that have become famous for a craft, food or event in history. The activities stand alone, but using them in conjunction with the book will offer a more complete learning experience.
