AQA Geography GCSE Revision Mat for Natural Hazards - WEATHER HAZARDS
Comes with answers (apart from case study section - feel free to add this for your school’s individual case study).
This is an A3 resource.
This resource is for all students studying coastal management.
This revision worksheet completely covers the process of longshore drift from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - coastal processes:
It includes 2 versions of a revision worksheet on longshore drift (one for higher ability and one for lower ability). Alternatively, the easier version could be completed first and then the harder version completed next lesson or a week later to practise recall. Answers included.
This lesson is based around a video and free resource from KIDOGO before investigating 4 factors that hold back some LICs from developing.
Lesson plan:
watch youtube video
complete a gap fill exercise based on what was in the video (sheet and answers provided)
complete a table using the info sheets provided (can stick the sheets around the room so students are moving around to find the answers)
3 lessons based around the Middle East:
locational knowledge (1 lesson)
climate - based on the question “Should FIFA be holding the 2022 world cup in Qatar?” (1-2 lessons) All data provided along with useful step-by-step guide of how to draw a climate graph
intro the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
Topic that could take 2-3 lessons plus a possible homework or computer room lesson.
First look at what global warming is and the difference between the natural and enhanced greenhouse effects. Then look at causes and effects. Finally students write a letter to Trump to educate him on global warming and why he shouldn’t be ignoring it.
Lesson 1 Objectives:
Define the term global warming
Explain the Greenhouse Effect
Explain the difference between natural and the enhanced greenhouse effect
Lesson 2 Objectives:
Recap the Greenhouse Effect
Determine the causes of global warming
Explain the long-term and short-term effects of global warming
Advise Trump how he should deal with global warming
12 questions (multiple choice) on flags of the world.
Good to use in class or as something to have out at an open evening to get children and parents engaged as they walk around.
This is a lesson aimed at KS3 students about the social impacts of blood diamonds taught through the lyrics to a rap song (Shin on em, Nas). Includes a link to the video on youtube and handout with lyrics and questions ready to go. New words are clarified first. Students first analyse the lyrics and then use what they’ve learned to write their own definition of blood diamonds in their book along with an explanation in their own words what the social impacts are (suggested structure and words to include provided).Mini-whiteboards useful.
This resource covers section 1 of the new Edexcel Astronomy specification. It covers all the key points that need to be known, except for the key words North Pole and South pole.
It can also be used a Geography resource.
It could also be used as an A level extension for Physics
2 worksheets that allow KS3 students to identify and rank the problems in shanty towns using a diamond 9 worksheet and then pick out what improvements they’d make using a budget and deciding what/where to spend it. They must already know what shanty towns are before doing these activities. Can be done as individual tasks or in groups for differentiation. Can be done in 1 lesson or over 2-3 if you want to include a presentation of what improvements each group has chosen. Great activities if your student like taking ownership of their work.
Aimed at KS3 but also suitable for low ability KS4. Defines push and pull factors (migration) and then has a written activity where students explain reasons why some people move to cities in LICs. Challenge questions to stretch more able. Mini whiteboards suggested for start and plenary. Opportunity for peer assessment on written work.
This 13-question quiz tests knowledge and understanding for the whole of AQA Coastal Landscapes Unit. Questions cover the following:
weathering + erosion
sand dunes
bays
longshore drift
spits + bars
wave-cut platforms
constructive + destructive waves
caves, arches, stacks, stumps
hard+soft sea defences
Instructions inside the powerpoint:
You will be given 12 questions (one at a time) on pieces of paper that are shaped very differently.
You cannot receive the next question until your group has correctly answered the one you’ve just been given.
As you start answering more questions, you should be able to build up the jigsaw pieces that fit together in the shape of a A4 piece of paper.
When the jigsaw is complete, flip it over (you may need Sellotape for this bit) and complete the challenge task on the back
BIG PRIZES UP FOR GRABS!!
please note that when printing you will have to select the double-sided option.
This revision worksheet covers the formation of a wave-cut platform from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - landmarks from erosion.
3 versions are included for higher, middle and lower ability. Alternatively, to improve recall students could be given the easier version to complete first and then a week later/next lesson could attempt a harder version.
Answers included.
Worksheet includes a diagram which has to be labeled and then statements that have to be put in the correct order to describe its formation.
Introduces concept of transportation and deposition in rivers using geographical vocab and engaging images. Planned for KS3 or lower ability KS4. Handouts are included if you decide to use them for lower ability students. 2 sugggested plenaries for you to choose from. The lesson is all about learning the vocab so have mini whiteboards at the ready. Repetition is important - you might have time to add an extra activity where the students write their own quiz based on the vocab they’ve learned or do this as a starter in the next lesson.
Objectives:
Define the terms transportation and deposition
Describe the 4 processes of transportation
Explain why deposition occurs
This revision worksheet covers beaches (constructive/destructive) and formation of sand dunes, spits and bars from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - landmarks from deposition.
2 versions are included for higher and lower ability. Alternatively, to improve recall students could be given the easier version to complete first and then a week later/next lesson could attempt the harder version.
Answers included.
This bundle includes differentiated worksheets with answers from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - coastal processes:
weathering, erosion & mass movement
There are 2 versions (for higher and lower ability) along with answers and quick quiz revision questions at the end. Students could be given the easier version to complete first and then a week later/next lesson could attempt the harder version.

There are 2 versions of a revision worksheet on longshore drift (one for higher ability and one for lower ability). Alternatively, the easier version could be completed first and then the harder version completed next lesson or a week later to practise recall.
This bundle includes worksheets on landmarks formed by deposition and erosion. All worksheets are differentiated and include answers that can be used for self or peer assessment.
wave type
This is a memory-based activity inspired by the popular party game ‘Kim’s game’ to revise the differences between constructive and destructive waves. There are some suggestions of how to use this resource in the powerpoint but it is totally up to you how you use this resource.
