I'm developing our urbanisation/ settlement SOW in year 7, wanting to include more sense of place, sustainable cities/ development etc. Would anyone mind sharing any resources or ideas for inspiration please ๐๐ #geography#geographyteacher
@RGS_IBGschools Here are some of mine currently- (The large Geography display and the Think, Write, Speak are inspired by @missgeog92 past displays!) Iโve also got a command word display and a student pledge wall too!
Geographical displays are fantastic tools in bringing a sense of place within a classroom and can help aid learning.
If you've got some good examples from your learning spaces. Please share them below ๐
Also, get in touch if you can share some classroom display tips #GeoDisplay

S3 have been enjoying revising key terms within the glaciation unit using โVocAPPularyโ templates. Each โappโ icon flips up to reveal a definition for each keyword underneath โ๏ธ๐งโ๏ธ
@fiona_616 That would be brilliant thankyou so much! I'm really excited to teach it and think the students will love it, though coasts would be easier as they've done lots on that through lower school.
@R_HGeog I have some v old stuff on a hard drive somewhere - Iโll see if I can find it. I really wanted to teach deserts instead of coasts but we use coasts for NEA
A-Level planning shoutout for #geographyteacher
I'm teaching AQA Hot Deserts for the first time to my Y13 class and was wondering if anybody had anything they'd be willing to share?
Advice/ resources/ websites / articles , anything would be a huuuge help๐ TIA
@R_HGeog@MrHand__@EducEndowFoundn This is brilliant. I'm teaching Carbon for the first time and this would be really useful. Would you be prepared to share?
Working on literacy and oracy as a school focus, I've adapted @MrHand__ 's guided reading strategy (this was for a Y12 lesson) to focus on the @EducEndowFoundn suggestions. Hoping this helps to create more independent readers and embeds deeper level literacy skills! #geography
Great fun this playing the survival game - discovering which animals in the #rainforest are friendly (or not!) and which fruit are safe to eat! ๐๐ฆ๐ฅญ #geographyteacher
@PickenGeog I've done exactly the same! I've also given them separate homework's to the others in the earlier stages and used this kind of format sheet but asked them to use the word in a sentence.
Has anybody had any experience with EAL students joining the school with very little oracy/fluency in English. Iโm lucky to be teaching a wonderful Thai student & want to support him but no idea where to start. Thinking of creating these every lesson but could do with tips ๐๐ผ
@samjdvs You can buy label paper from Amazon, and print feedback straight onto that if you use the bypass tray! Plus then you can print anything you need !! Only ยฃ8.99 x
Help! I've never taught A Level water and carbon cycles! Has anyone got a lesson breakdown/SoW or any resources to help me get started please? @MrTs_NQTs Happy to exchange in return! ๐๐ณ
@propermenshevik@jwalms93 (3), scaffold etc for students but then stop this for trainee teachers? They should have something to work with/ from, whilst having the expectation of adapting/ creating more as they progress. Having access to resources is a huge help to teachers at all stages of the profession.
@propermenshevik@jwalms93 (2) have jobs alongside their training, have large assignments to complete and may still have lectures or meetings. So whilst most timetables are less than that of a full time teacher, planning everything from scratch is usually not feasible. Why do we model/ worked examples,
Has any Geography teacher made / taught a lesson on the recent Turkey earthquakes? Designing & teaching a tectonics unit for year 7, theyโve all been so interested and inquisitive and I wanted to include this as a case study lesson on this! #Geography#geographyteacher
