I've almost finished creating a series of lessons on the Middle East for KS3! This has been today's task - a lesson focusing on Yemen and the geopolitical factors at play. #geographyteacher #NQT (@KCGeographies thank you for the inspiration for this particular lesson!)

This thread is worth reading. While I have no idea what will happen, this looks to me like a plausible trajectory. A long arc of horror and grief, but with Putin losing in the end. What do you think?

For obvious reasons, the situation in Ukraine hit peak interest in school. Students keen for answers/reassurance. Tip of the iceberg but the ‘conflict at a glance’ looks to the geography, history/politics of the dispute. Hopefully it provides accessible insight. #historyteacher

Here is an ongoing list of competitions for students to enter - some many not necessarily jump out as 'geography' but what's stopping your students entering science and English compeitions when using a geographical theme? docs.google.com/document/d/1…

The current sitting Queen of England is two years older than this. People try to treat their lives like ancient, unchangeable history. Just a chapter in your high school text book. This is contemporary.
btw if MLK and anne frank hadn’t been killed, they’d both be 93 today (younger than betty white). i think it’s important to see pictures of them in color as a reminder that “history” was not very long ago
