<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the latest specification Unit 1B: In this lesson we look at the types of erosional landforms you find in glaciated landscapes.</p> <p>The starter is just a quick coast-themed retrieval practice quiz which has been left blank so you can add your own questions.</p> <p>We start by looking at the erosive power of glaciers and how corries form in highland areas. The pupils create a sequential diagram to show how a corrie forms from small nivation hollows. We then look at aretes and pyramidal peaks with examples of each and then look at how erosion has created a variety of further highland erosional features when the pupils annotate a diagram of a highland glaciated area. We finish with a 6 mark GCSE-style exam question with guidance on how to answer it. The lesson also uses some video clips to help the pupils visualise these features.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the latest specification Unit 1B: In this lesson we look at transportation and depositional landforms such as moraines, drumlins and erratics.</p> <p>The starter is glaciation-themed retrieval quiz.</p> <p>We then look at the idea of the glacial conveyor belt, what glacial till is and what the difference between sorted and unsorted material is and why they form in different environments. The pupils create diagrams of both. We then consider moraines and the different types of moraines. The pupils have a diagram to annotate and label. We then consider drumlins, the pupils again create diagrams and learn why they show direction of movement and collective called ‘basket of eggs’ topography. We then briefly look at erratics and how they can also show the history of glacier movement. We finish with a 4 mark GCSE-style exam question with guidance on how to answer it.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the latest specification Unit 1B: In this lesson we look at the processes of weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition in glacial environments.</p> <p>The starter is just a quick photo mystery around glacial deposits.</p> <p>We then look at the extent of the ice sheet during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). We introduce freeze-thaw weathering as the principle type of weathering in glacial environments as the pupils create a sequential diagram. The pupils are provided with a diagram to annotate for the processes of abrasion and plucking. We watch a video on the transportation of material by the glacier and the pupils create a diagram. They then construct a paragraph on transportation by guessing the missing words using the picture prompts. They also construct a paragraph on deposition based on sentence fragments. We finish with a 4 mark GCSE-style exam question with guidance on how to answer it.</p> <p>Hope this saves you some valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

<p>Series of 7 lessons that looks at ice ages, glaciers, glacial processes, erosional features, OS map work of glaciated landscapes and conflicts in glaciated landscapes.<br /> The lessons include starter activities with answers, information slides, a variety of activities, video hyperlinks and plenary tests.</p>

<p>This lesson examined the Lake District and how humans use a post-glacial environment, then goes on to examine the impact of human use (tourism) - footpath erosion, traffic, pollution, fouling, etc.</p>

<p>Lesson 3 of 8.</p> <p>Lesson Objectives:<br /> To know the four main processes operating in a glacial valley.<br /> To understand how specific processes such as plucking, freeze thaw and abrasion shape the landscape.<br /> To be able to link glacial processes to explain the landscape they have left behind.</p> <p>LA structured worksheet included</p>

<p>This is a comprehensive revision powerpoint about glaciation. It contains 40 detailed slides on the facts, processes and landforms of glaciation. It was designed for WJEC Geography AS Level but could be adapted to any exam board. It would be an excellent resource to cover a few lessons before the exam or for students as an independent resource. I created it to revise for my exam and achieved an A (maximum grade at AS).</p>

<p>A3 - Revision Sheet - Glaciation</p> <p>This resource was constructed to help students revise the topic of Glaciation (Year 9 or above). It allows the students to use a range of exam techniques as well as more fun based questions to try and keep revision focused and detailed.</p> <p>The range of topics covered are listed below:</p> <ul> <li>The global distribution of polar biomes</li> <li>When was the last glacial period in earth’s history</li> <li>Ice sheets, ice caps, ice shelfs</li> <li>Features of a glacier</li> <li>Glacial processes</li> <li>Erosional landforms</li> <li>Depositional landforms</li> <li>The lake district: the pros and cons of tourism</li> </ul>

<p>Use this resource to teach KS4 pupils about glaciation.</p>

<p>This lesson looks at the formation of glaciated features and how to locate them</p>

<p>This resource contains all the materials to teach a full unit titled Glaciation and Rivers. This is designed for year 7’s however could easily be edited to cater for slightly older year groups.</p> <p>This resource contains all powerpoints, resources, homeworks and assessment materials. Lesson titles are as follows:<br /> Lesson 1 - Glaciation<br /> Lesson 2 - Glacial Processes<br /> Lesson 3 - Erosional Landforms Part 1<br /> Lesson 4 - Erosional Landforms Part 2<br /> Lesson 5 - Transportational and Depositional Landforms<br /> Lesson 6 - Using Glacial Landforms<br /> Lesson 7 - Mid Unit Assessment<br /> Lesson 8 - The Water Cycle<br /> Lesson 9 - Drainage Basin<br /> Lesson 10 - Fluvial Processes<br /> Lesson 11 - Upper Course Landforms<br /> Lesson 12 - Middle Course Landforms<br /> Lesson 13 - Causes of Flooding<br /> Lesson 14 - River Management<br /> Lesson 15 - End of Unit Assessment</p> <p>Plus 2 additional pieces of material:<br /> Mid Unit Feedback<br /> End of Unit Feedback</p>

<p>Words not specific to any specification. I do hope someone finds it of use.</p>

<p>Notes on glaciation, the landforms they create and how those landforms are used today.</p>

<p>MISSION: POPSICLE - You are on a mission to find out how glaciers work. Your understanding could help save them from climate change.</p> <p>This board game covers many aspects of the glacial systems. The game introduces lots of technical terminology in context, encouraging deeper understanding of the links between processes in the system.</p> <p>The supporting recording sheet is designed to encourage students to think about the sequential nature of glacial systems.</p> <p>These resources are ideal for determining student understanding of the intricacies of the glacial systems, but equally could be used to introduce glaciation from scratch.</p> <p>Additional equipment required:<br /> Counters - although pen lids and rubbers etc work equally well<br /> Dice - or dice app!</p>

<p>This is a lesson where students need laptops or computers to use GIS. The students will learn how to measure the area of the ice sheet covering Britain in the last Ice Age and will also learn how to measure the length of glaciers.</p>

Glaciation: AQA -1 GCSE Geography

<p>This knowledge booklet is used alongside the unit of work for KS3 Glaciation to provide the students with an overview of the lessons they will be doing and practice questions for them to have a go at and ideas of questions in the tests.</p>

<p>Good for home learning to encourage extra research for students. To build upon the Geog textbook.</p>
