Infiltration fieldwork: A popular activity to do on the school site. Students enjoy timing water as it enters the ground! You only need tennis ball / crisp tubes, stopwatches and measuring cylinders (cheap to buy from science 2 education). Link above. #geography #geographyteacher

Worried about having a few ‘left-over’ lessons with Y9? Not sure how to use the time wisely for those carrying on & for those dropping geography? In the past I’ve really enjoyed ending KS3 with this short series of lessons on locational knowledge 🗺️🧭 katestockings.com/geographyc…

‘Presence with purpose’ A strong school culture requires everyone to be rowing in the same direction 🚣‍♀️ A shared belief towards a common goal and an understanding of how to reach it

Grades are a distractor for learning. HOLD the grade to give feedback first. A key principle in the Feedback Pendulum 😊 The Feedback Pendulum: A manifesto for enhancing feedback in education amzn.eu/d/0Dpi6Lv

Replying to @PearceMrs
In the study students who received their grades at the same time as their feedback made almost no real improvement in a later assignment. Where students who received their feedback and then grades after a three-day delay performed 21% better.

Wow! Thank you for all your responses! If you would like a copy of the GIS map to use with your classes use the following link arcg.is/1S9LO0 I have also uploaded a copy of the worksheet to this folder here: docs.google.com/document/d/1… (Hopefully it works!) 🌍🌍🌍

I used to print maps to teach the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes. Not only did this cost money (colour printing😆) but I never really felt that students grasped what I wanted them to. So after watching videos mainly @lcgeography (thank you!) I now use GIS! 🧵
