This lesson is an ideal introduction to the world’s three main climate zones.
It is part of Our World, a Geography unit designed for students in KS1 and lower KS2 (Y1-3), but can also be taught as a stand alone lesson.
First the presentation helps students understand that different places in the world have different climates. It then looks at the location of the Equator and North/South poles, and how these relate to the three main climate zones. To keep things simple, these are referred to as hot (tropical), mild (temperate) and cold (frigid).
The activity challenges students to locate the Equator and poles and then identify various climate zones around the world. It is differentiated two ways:
Easier – Students identify the climate zone of 8 numbered points around the world.
Harder – Students identify climate zone and continent of 8 numbered points around the world.
Extension – Students cut and stick pictures of four animals – elephant, lion, polar bear and penguin – onto their world climate zone map.

This lesson is part of Exploring Brazil, a Geography unit designed for students in KS2 (Y4-6), but can also be taught as a stand alone lesson.
It is a great introduction to using 6-figure grid references. The presentation first recaps how to find 4-figure grid references, then demonstrates how to find 6-figure grid references step by step.
There are two activities:
Activity 1:
Students locate 16 Brazilian cities using 4-figure grid references.
Extension – Students answer questions involving grid references and compass directions.
Activity 2:
Students have a go at describing the location of Brazilian cities more precisely using 6-figure grid references.
Easier – Students use mini-grids to help them locate 16 cities using 6-figure grid references.
Medium – Students use mini-grids to locate 8 cities, then estimate 6-figure grid references for 8 more cities.
Harder – Students have to estimate 6-figure grid references for all 16 cities (i.e. no mini-grids).

This lesson is designed for KS2 students. It can be taught as a stand alone lesson but is also available as part of two wider units, both of which are available on TES:
-Volcanoes
-Volcanoes & Earthquakes

The activity then challenges students to locate volcanoes using an atlas or the internet (e.g. Google maps). Alternatively, a map of famous world volcanoes is also provided.
Easier – Students locate volcanoes using the map of famous volcanoes (writing numbers).
Medium – Students locate volcanoes using the map of famous volcanoes (writing volcano names).
Harder – Students locate volcanoes using an atlas.
(N.B. It is recommended you check the atlas has the relevant maps prior doing the activity.)

This lesson is part of Investigating Rivers, a unit designed for upper KS2 (Y4-6).
It introduces many key river concepts and a wide range of related vocabulary. First the presentation recaps the main processes of the water cycle. It then introduces some of the well known features of river systems (e.g. waterfalls and lakes). There are two activities:
Group Activity:
Students are challenged to match eight features of river systems to photos, satellite images and maps. This activity can easily be differentiated by giving groups different numbers of cards.
Individual Activity:
In the worksheet activity students identify the same features on a simplified drawing of a river system. It is differentiated two ways:
Easier – Students identify river features and complete cloze procedure definitions.
Harder – Students identify river features and write their own definitions of four river features.

This is a huge bundle of resources covering many of the topics studied in Year 1/ AS year of the OCR A Biology course.
Due to the similarities with other A level specifications this bundle would be well suited to other exam boards too.
Topics covered include:
1.) The heart and circulation
2.) The cardiac cycle
3.Chromatography
3.) Nucleic acids
4.) Protein synthesis
5.) Mitosis and meiosis
6.) Cell structure
7.) Transport in plants

9.) Prokaryotes
10.) Biochemistry: Carbohydrates
11.) Biochemistry: Lipids (Trigylcerides)
12.) Biochemistry: Proteins
13.) Biochemistry: Water and it’s properties
Answer sheets are provided for all resources included in this bundle
Gives learners examples of sentence starters and appropriate language to use for each part of the paragraph or essay. For example, how to introduce evidence or an explanation. There are also suggestions for introduction and conclusion language. It helps learners to add structure to thier longer pieces of writing.
Useful for English as second language learners and can support less confident writers.
It fits on one slide so is easy to display.
In my context, it is useful in History and Geography but could be used in any subject requiring more detailed written responses.
Time zone loop cards where the children must work out the time change between GMT and other countries aimed at 2nd Level CfE or KS2 equivalent.
Example: What time is it in Moscow when it is 21:30 in Glasgow- children must work out the change of +3 hrs - all children check cards to see if they have 00:30 and read their question until it makes it way right round the class.
Can use a time zone reference sheet to support children with the time zone or show a time zone map on IWB.
Assessing compass directions, measuring distance, grid references, map symbols, contour lines and describing directions, this workbook is a great revision tool for geographers of any age wanting to hone their OS map skills.
