Creative and innovative resources that meet the needs of every learner in every lesson.
Why create numerous resources when one can do it all.
Most resources are for geography lessons, but many are for whole-school too and cross over into numerous subjects.

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.
