Again I’m a little late in getting this post sorted. I didn’t manage to write this post last week which was a little disappointment. Is was mainly due to me being rather tired and behind after an excellent weekend spent trekking in the Pyrenees – more about that here.
Last Week
Students have finished the What is Geography? unit and have started the Using Maps and Atlases unit by looking at Map Projections.
Students have covered biofuels and locating a wind farm – which uses a geographyalltheway.com worksheet with a GIS simulation produced by Ordnance Survey.
Students have continued to work positively through the Population Change section. They have looked at the Impact of HIV/AIDS and the Population vs Resources debate.
Students have finished the River Processes section and completed an IGCSE style assessment using past questions.
Students have been studying Population Distribution and Population Fertility.
Students have been looking at Contrasting Levels of Development by comparing the development of Norway and Niger. Then they started the Sustainable Development section.
Next Week
Students will cover Longitude and Latitude and hopefully progress onto Atlas Skills.
Students will prepare for ‘The Great Wind Farm Debate‘ – using the information provided by Talking Heads, Google Earth overlays and delicious bookmarks.
Students will study Population Policies.
Students will start the Marine Processes / Coast unit of the course by looking at Wave Processes and Coastal Landforms.
