Geography
Introduction to biomes KS3
This PowerPoint and worksheet gives students a basic introduction to global biomes, their locations and why they have different climates. The fill in the blanks activity challenges students to think about climate globally with an extension question for the higher ability students.
What is globalisation?
This lesson introduces students to globalisation, what it is and how we can recogonise examples of it in our daily lives.
What are the impacts of TNCs in Nigeria?
Case study specific lesson about TNCs and the impact they are having on Nigeria.
How do waves shape the coastline?
This lesson looks at how waves create landforms of erosion including bays and headlands, wave-cut platforms. This lesson helps students to understand the difference between concordant and discordant coastlines
How do sea caves become sea stacks?
This lesson looks at how a sea stack and stump form in a headland.
What are depositional landforms?
This lesson looks at depositional landforms and how the process of longshore drift create them.
What is coastal management like at Lyme Regis?
Case study specific lesson looking at Lyme Regis in the UK and how the area has been improved by implementing hard engineering strategies.
How do we stop the coast from eroding?
This lesson is an introduction to hard and soft engineering processes and how they are used to protect the coastline
How is the UK affected by coastal erosion?
This is a research based lesson where students must complete their own case studies for an area of the UK affected by coastal erosion. Group work activity and / or homework activity. Students can be asked to present their research to the class to include collaboration and confidence into their work tasks.
Coasts KS3 assessment and revision
This is an assessment lesson to help students revise for the attached assessment based on coasts for KS3.
What is the land made of?
This lesson introduces students to the rock cycle and the characteristics of the main rock types. This allows students to understand why some rocks erode faster than others.
What is a coastline?
This lesson asks to students what coastline is and how different types of waves impact the coastline - constructive and destructive waves and beaches are explained to students here.
How does weather change the shape of the land?
This lesson looks at the difference between weathering and erosion and focuses on the different type of weathering. The lesson gives detail about mechanical weathering - freeze thaw action.
How do we measure development?
This lesson introduces students to development indicators with focus on HDI and its pros and cons. it interlinks math skills where students are asked to create radial graphs based on HDI of different countries (countries can be changed to suit your classroom location / nationalities).
How can we help developing countries?
This lesson looks at the difference between top down and bottom up aid strategies with emphasis on ‘Goat aid’ as a case study example of bottom up aid used in Ethiopia (and other African countries).
What processes occur in a river?
This lesson focuses on the definitions for erosion, transportation and deposition with emphasis on the processes of erosion and transportation.
What jobs does a river do?
This lesson looks at the long and cross profiles of a river and which stage erosion and transportation occurs in
What is the upper course of a river like
This lesson looks at the upper course of the river and the formation of the landforms found there - interlocking spurs, v-shaped valleys and waterfalls. This lesson was created for online learning so can be altered for online or in school learning or homework / independent learning task.
What is the middle course of river like
This lesson focuses on the middle course of a river and the formation of the landform found there - meanders and ox bow lakes. This lesson was created for online purposes so cna be altered to suit online, independent, homework or in class work.
Bundle
Coasts - KS3
This bundle includes lessons, resources and assessments for the topic of coasts. Lessons look at what coasts are, how they erode, what landforms are created along a coastline as well as a case stud on Lyme Regis. The topic starts with an introduction to Geology so students understand why some rocks erode faster than others
