This scheme of work is designed to rapidly introduce Year 7 to key geographical skills such as locational knowledge, using development indicators, describing graphs and charts, describing and interpreting climate graphs, describing the relationship between maps e.g. relief and population density and analysing population pyramids.
These skills are covered through the study of three countries; Japan (HIC), Russia (NEE) and Somalia (LIC). This therefore covers aspects of the National Curriculum through studying Russia, a place in Asia and a place in Africa.
The lessons on life and culture in the three countries also provides great opportunities for SMSC and develops students’ awe and wonder.
The lessons are iterative in nature, meaning starters are built in to recap previous learning. The USA v Mexico lessons at the end of the unit are synoptic, in that students need to apply the knowledge and skills to these countries that they have learned during the topic.
All lessons and resources for the whole of paper 1 section A of the new AQA GCSE.
Includes tectonic hazards (Haiti), climate change and weather hazards (Typhoon Haiyan).
