Geography Year 9 term 1 Order of lessons Theme: - Tectonics Week Lesson Title Walt Main Tasks Assessment 1 1 Introducti on to the course To know the structure and expectation s of the course. Course outlined to students. Complete introductory task on 4 spheres of influence on the planet. Peer/self- assessed questions. 2 Structure of the Earth To discover and identify the different layers to the Earth. Read layers of the Earth sheet, complete worksheet. (D Grade). Compare layers of the Earth and crust types. (C-B Grade) Written or drawing annotations. Peer assessed comparisons. 2 1 Plate movements 1 To enquire about the reasons for tectonic plate movement. Students explain convection currents. Structured questions on plate movement evidence. Peer assessment/ Self- assessment of question answers. 2 Plate movements 2 To explore the plate location and movement of the Earth’s crust. Kung Fu plate tectonics. Complete map of tectonic plates and worksheet on plate movement types. (D grade) Correct map placement. Peer/Self assess worksheet answers. 3 1 Volcano’s To imagine what it would be like to experience a volcanic eruption. Discovery lesson with lots of videos/sounds/cartoo ns. Students complete sensory task and present ideas on volcano’s from a range of methods. Assessable piece from end of lesson task. Notes check of key terms. 2 Reducing the effect of volcanic eruptions To explore ways to monitor and protect areas from volcanic eruptions. Students create a case study of the Sakurajima volcano and methods of protection in the area. Theory check of ideas. Structured case study table. 4 1 LEDC Volcano’s To explore the impacts of volcanic Mount Nyiragongo in DRC case study sheet. Marking of case study sheet.

2Reducing the effect of volcanic eruptionsTo explore ways to monitor and protect areas from volcanic eruptions.Students create a case study of the Sakurajima volcano and methods of protection in the area.Theory check of ideas. Structured case study table.
41LEDC VolcanosTo explore the impacts of volcanic eruption on LEDC areas.Mount Nyiragongo in DRC case study sheet. Marking of case study sheet.
2Earthquakesto investigate the impacts of and reduction methods used for earthquakesStudents make a comparison table of 2 Japanese earthquakes. Then students draw a diagram of prevention methods. Diagram and table to mark for accuracy.
51LEDC EarthquakesTo explore the impacts caused by LEDC earthquakes.Students explore earthquakes in China. Look at the damage levels and the response times. Complete an annotated map on the event.Map to be marked on the theory and annotations.
2Assessment To review the topic via assessmentStudents complete mock test 1.Peer mark short answer questions. Formally mark test for grade cards.
61Christ Church earthquakeTo explore the impacts of the Christchurch earthquake.Students conduct research on the 2011 event. They then investigate impacts at varying levels, responses and futures.Presentations
