A 57 page revision guide designed for OCR A, paper 1. All with a UK focus. Areas covered are: Coasts Population Energy Modifying the landscape for food & water Rivers Industry Urban geography Upland, lowland & glacial areas Climate of the UK It differs from a conventional guide because on each page it provides students with actual tasks to complete. E.g. sorting, linking, drawing, SPaG, spot the mistakes etc. At the back there are dozens of questions that pupils can use the guide to help answer. I printed lots off in colour and charged students £2 as well as providing them with a copy on disc. Some students just wanted a free disc copy & printed it at home. Please see my other guides for paper2 & 3. Although designed for OCR, much of the content is the same for other exam boards and it is very easily amended. This took dozens of hours to create and will be an superb time save resource that will really support students of all ability.

E.g. sorting, linking, drawing, SPaG, spot the mistakes etc. At the back there are dozens of questions that pupils can use the guide to help answer. The 2 statistic pages were printed on A3, laminated & provided to the pupils as last minute revision, whilst they were waiting to go into the exam hall.

Outlines for geography marking to speed up feedback & make it manageable. These can be used for a variety of tasks. They are much easier for pupils to read and save repeating the same comments on numerous pieces of work.

A work sheet (ideally printed in A3) that allows pupils to breakdown the correct way to answer specific command words in questions. Designed for all levels and ages of pupils, but with a specific GCSE focus.

A 37 page revision guide for OCR GCSE Geography. Has command word breakdown & exemplar answer sections along with higher level detail needed for longer answer success. Lots of detail to allow pupils to access the learning needed for the more complex and longer mark questions. Although created for OCR A & B, it can easily be amended for Edexcel & AQA. I used it as a revision tool before the mock & final examinations.

A full lesson the causes, effects & responses to an aging population. Pupils cut & stick statements & explain some in more depth. Includes marking statements that can be printed and stuck onto completed work. Pupils loved this lesson. Suitable for all 1-9 specifications. Just check the terminology is correct for the exam board that you are using.

All the resources needed to teach pupils about the demographic transition model. Probably 3 lessons worth of work. I’ve even added feedback sheets to allow for speedy marking. Just print & staple to pupil work & assessments. Suitable for all age groups & easily amended to suit all GCSE geography specifications.

A great lesson that teaches pupils about Rostows model. The lesson has key word analysis & explaining & links these terms to explaining each stage of the model. Pupils watch a great clip and use the structured sheet to outline each stage of the model. Designed for the new 1-9 gcse specifications.

A super lesson that explores e-waste. Students use the information sheet (no need for books) to create a mindmap. SEND resource included too. The gcse style question sheet puts learning into a context. I would recommend printing the information sheet in colour & in A3 & laminating it, to be used again. The cartoon strip is best in A3 too. Links well to much of the new 1-9 specification and was used as part of the KS3 SOW.

A simple, but effective IT lesson that allows pupils to research the different types of renewable & non-renewable energy.

A lesson that explores the cause of flooding. Links well to much of the new 1-9 specification and was used as part of the KS3 SOW.

A great lesson that enables students to create a tracing paper (GIS) overlay that identifies areas that are prone to flooding. It works bes by photocopying onto tracing paper. This can easily be done by changing the settings on the photocopier.

Homework ideas for the GCSE AQA geography specification. They include QR codes that link to on-line resources. These tasks require little to no marking, are fun and engaging and support the development of cultural capital in terms of creating great global citizens.

A wide range of home-learning activities that can be used across a range of year groups. These asks are designed to be fun and engaging and require very little or no marking. These activities include QR codes that link to video clips and are activities that will support the development of well-rounded global citizens.

All resources needed to teach kids how material is transported in a river. e.g. traction. It includes PowerPoint, worksheet and feedback.

Small (mini) projects designed to be conducted around your school grounds. They require students to conduct data collection, presentation, methods, evaluate and create conclusions. The maps used will need changing for your school, but this is simply just a matter of copying it from Google maps. This will save you a lot of time and effort. I have included one PowerPoint to enable you to amend it as you see fit. My kids loved doing these and we schedule them in for the end of the year.

A fully resources lesson to provide students with and overview of the distribution of rainforests & deserts. Students describe the distribution and then look at effective ways to describe graphs. This is an important geographical skill that supports pupils in picking up those easy marks in assessments. The lesson has a focus upon the climate & location of deserts & tropical rainforests, but another layer for other ecosystems can easily be added. I print the rainforest map onto tracing paper which the kids then put the base map in order to create a very simplified GIS map.

A lovely and simple lesson that allows pupils to understand what jobs may be available in the future. It also enables pupils to practice and develop their note-taking skills. With particular reference to putting texts into their own words. It was planned as an integral part of the KS3 Geography curriculum, but can also be used for PSHCE at a whole-school level.

A full lesson (powerpoint & resources) that enables pupils to develop a wide range of skills alongside learning about development indicators and how the world is so uneven. Pupils analyse statistics and data. Present the data in a number of ways using the scaffolded frameworks. Look at analysis strategies. Explain some of the data to explain why it varies. This is best printed on A3.

A great lesson (takes about 3 hours to complete) where pupils look into the impacts that food production has around the world. These are all resources needed. Pupils have an information sheet that includes all of the data needed. They use this to complete a mindmap. One done, they then apply their knowledge in the form of a scaffolded and structured newspaper article. These are all best printed on A3. It pulls a lot of different skills (data analysis, research, not taking, explaining, literacy, comprehension) and geographical understanding together.
